Documentation for older versions of IBM MQ

For older versions of IBM® MQ products, and of scenarios describing connecting IBM MQ with other IBM products, documentation is provided outside of IBM Documentation. Available formats are PDF and Information Center.

Note: This topic is not IBM MQ version-specific, it is a family-level topic. It is always published in the latest IBM MQ version. If you want to bookmark this topic, please bookmark the following link. This link continues to work when a new IBM MQ version is released. https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/SSFKSJ_latest/overview/doc_older_versions.html.
