IBM MQ components for AIX systems

You can select the components that you require when you install IBM® MQ.

On AIX® each component of IBM MQ is represented by a fileset. Table 1 shows the filesets that are available when installing an IBM MQ server or client on an AIX system:
Table 1. IBM MQ filesets for AIX systems
Component Description Server media Client media Hypervisor Fileset name
Runtime Contains files that are common to both server and client installations.
Note: This component must be installed.
X X X mqm.base.runtime
Server You can use the server to run queue managers on your system and connect to other systems over a network. Provides messaging and queuing services to applications, and support for IBM MQ client connections. X   X mqm.server.rte
Standard Client The IBM MQ MQI client is a small subset of IBM MQ, without a queue manager, that uses the queue manager and queues on other (server) systems. It can be used only when the system it is on is connected to another system that is running a full server version of IBM MQ. The client and the server can be on the same system if required. X X X mqm.client.rte
SDK The SDK is required for compiling applications. It includes sample source files, and the bindings (files .H, .LIB, .DLL, and others), that you need to develop applications to run on IBM MQ. X X X mqm.base.sdk
Sample programs The sample application programs are needed if you want to check your IBM MQ installation using the verification procedures. X X X mqm.base.samples
Java messaging The files needed for messaging using Java (includes Java Messaging Service). X X X mqm.java.rte
Man pages UNIX man pages, in U.S. English, for:
control commands
MQI calls
MQSC commands
 X X X mqm.man.en_US.data
Java JRE A Java Runtime Environment that is used by those parts of IBM MQ that are written in Java. X X X mqm.jre.rte
Message Catalogs For available languages, see the table of message catalogs that follows. X X X  
IBM Global Security Kit (GSKit) GSKit 8 Certificate and SSL, or TLS, Base Runtime. You must install the Java JRE component to install this component. X X X mqm.gskit.rte
Telemetry Service MQ Telemetry supports the connection of Internet Of Things (IOT) devices (that is, remote sensors, actuators and telemetry devices) that use the IBM MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol. The telemetry (MQXR) service enables a queue manager to act as an MQTT server, and communicate with MQTT client apps.

A set of MQTT clients is available from the Eclipse Paho downloads page. These sample clients help you write your own MQTT client apps that IOT devices use to communicate with MQTT servers.

Managed File Transfer MQ Managed File Transfer transfers files between systems in a managed and auditable way, regardless of file size or the operating systems used. For information about the function of each component, see IBM MQ Managed File Transfer product options. X   X
mqm.ft.agent
mqm.ft.base
mqm.ft.logger
mqm.ft.service
mqm.ft.tools
Advanced Message Security Provides a high level of protection for sensitive data flowing through the IBM MQ network, while not impacting the end applications. You must install this component on all IBM MQ installations that host queues you want to protect.

You must install the GSKit component on any IBM MQ installation that is used by a program that puts or gets messages to or from a protected queue, unless you are using only Java client connections.

You must install the Java JRE component to install this component.

[V8.0.0.4 Oct 2015]AMQP Service [V8.0.0.4 Oct 2015]Install this component to make AMQP channels available. AMQP channels support MQ Light APIs. You can use AMQP channels to give AMQP applications access to the enterprise-level messaging facilities provided by IBM MQ.

[V8.0.0.4 Oct 2015]You must install the AMQP Service component by using the IBM MQ V8.0.0.4 manufacturing refresh, not the V8.0.0.4 Fix Pack. You cannot install the AMQP component on a version of the queue manager earlier than V8.0.0.4.

[V8.0.0.5 May 2016]From IBM MQ 8.0.0, Fix Pack 5, you can use the AMQP Service component on the IBM MQ Appliance.
