TNS non-native application support
You can run TNS non-native applications with IBM® MQ for HPE NonStop V8.1.
The support for TNS non-native applications is designed to allow legacy WebSphere MQ for HP NonStop Server V5.3 TNS applications to run with IBM MQ V8.1. It is not designed to support the development of new IBM MQ application programs.
The TNS non-native support in IBM MQ for HPE NonStop V8.1 is limited to the IBM MQ APIs and features found in the WebSphere MQ for HP NonStop Server V5.3 product. New IBM MQ V8 API features are not available in the non-native TNS environment. Note that non-native applications do not support MQCONNX.
TNS non-native applications using IBM MQ for HPE NonStop V8.1 must run as Guardian processes. IBM MQ V8 does not support OSS TNS non-native applications.
IBM MQ for HPE NonStop V8.1 supports C, COBOL, and TAL languages in the TNS non-native environment.
IBM MQ for HPE NonStop
V8.1 TNS non-native applications require a
single Guardian "param" named MQPATHTNS to be defined. The
MQPATHTNS param must specify the OSS mqinstall location for the
IBM MQ installation.
