Installing API exits on AIX

How to install the API exit on IBM® AIX® systems.

About this task

To install the API exit on an AIX system:

Locate the exits directory of your IBM WebSphere® MQ installation (for example, /var/mq/exits/Installation1/).
Copy intercept_aix_ppc32_7.x and intercept_aix_ppc32_7.x_r from IBMWebSphereMQdist.zip package to the exits directory.
Rational® Integration Tester API Exits are provided with Rational Test Control Panel. For information, see Rational Integration Tester tool packages
Note:
- For IBM WebSphere MQ 7.0, use the API exit modules located in the 7.0 folder.
- For IBM WebSphere MQ 7.1 and later versions, use the API exit modules located in the 7.1-8.0 folder.

Create symbolic links to these modules:

ln –s intercept_aix_ppc32_7.x intercept
ln –s intercept_aix_ppc32_7.x_r intercept_r

Make the exit modules globally executable:

cd /var/mq/exits/Installation1/
chown mqm intercept_aix_*
chgrp mqm intercept_aix_*
chmod a+rx intercept_aix_*

Locate the exits64 directory of your IBM WebSphere MQ installation (for example, /var/mq/exits64/Installation1/).
Copy intercept_aix_ppc64_7.x and intercept_aix_ppc64_7.x_r from IBMWebSphereMQdist.zip package to the exits64 directory.
Note:
- For IBM WebSphere MQ 7.0, use the API exit modules located in the 7.0 folder.
- For IBM WebSphere MQ 7.1 and later versions, use the API exit modules located in the 7.1-8.0 folder.

Create symbolic links to these modules:

ln –s intercept_aix_ppc64_7.x intercept
ln –s intercept_aix_ppc64_7.x_r intercept_r

Make the exit files globally executable:

cd /var/mq/exits64/Installation1/
chown mqm intercept_aix_*
chgrp mqm intercept_aix_*
chmod a+rx intercept_aix_*
