Configuring XML Probe and Gateway for JMS Transport

1) Create Queue Manager

2) Create Topic under Queue Manager, tick Start JMS wizards to create matching JMS topic

3) Create JMS Administered object:

+Add Initial Context, follow wizard setup

+Create Connection factories->create Topic Connection Factory

+Choose Topic Connection Factory

+Choose MQClient when the MQ and JMS client (Probe) in different host.

4)  Bindings file will be created depending on the directory that you specified. Transfer the bindings file to the machine where the probe resides.

This can be copied into any directory on the probe's machine and this directory has to be specified at “providerURL” in the Probe Transport property file

5) Transfer all jar files below from <MQ_HOME>/java/lib to $OMNIHOME/java/jars :

 CL3Export.jar CL3Nonexport.jar com.ibm.mq.commonservices.jar

com.ibm.mq.defaultconfig.jar com.ibm.mq.headers.jar com.ibm.mq.jar

com.ibm.mq.jmqi.jar com.ibm.mq.jms.Nojndi.jar com.ibm.mq.pcf.jar

com.ibm.mq.postcard.jar com.ibm.mq.soap.jar com.ibm.mq.tools.ras.jar

com.ibm.mqetclient.jar com.ibm.mqjms.jar connector.jar dhbcore.jar

fscontext.jar jndi.jar jta.jar ldap.jar providerutil.jar rmm.jar
