Integrating with external systems

Maximo® Manage has an in-built Java™ Messaging Service (JMS) provider and it is possible to use an external JMS provider as well.

About this task

Maximo Application Suite 8.8 onwards supports an in-built JMS provider that you can use for integration purposes in Maximo Manage.

Procedure

  1. Procure, install, and configure the external JMS provider. For example, IBM® MQ or Liberty messaging engine.
  2. Register the JMS provider queues in Maximo Manage.
  3. Associate the registered queues by using the External Systems application in Maximo Manage. For more information, see Adding JMS queues to an external system.
    Note: If you are using the Liberty messaging engine, you must register the queues and connection factories in Maximo Manage by using the server.xml file for Liberty. For more information, see Enabling JMS messaging for Liberty.
