IMS connection factory

The properties of an IMS™ TM resource adapter connection factory must be configured properly to match the characteristics of the target Enterprise Information System (EIS).

When you create an IMS service definition or define an IMS connection factory to WebSphere® Application Server (managed connections), you must provide values for certain properties of the connection between the IMS TM resource adapter and IMS Connect. A connection factory provides the required information, such as host name and data store name, to connect to the EIS. Other connection information might be needed depending on the security settings and the type of connections.

If you must use non-managed connections, the IMSConnectionSpec class provides the API to set the connection properties.
