Installing and configuring Rational Integration Tester API exits

You can install and configure Rational® Integration Tester API exits for IBM® WebSphere® MQ.

For information about installing Rational Integration Tester exits and configuring it for use with IBM WebSphere® MQ on a IBM z/OS® system, see Setting up IBM WebSphere MQ and installing the HRVMMQF Exits.

Deploying Rational Integration Tester API exits
To enable sift and pass through, transport-level recording and queue recording with the mirror or dynamic mirror queue options, you must deploy the API Exits that are supplied with Rational Test Control Panel into the WebSphere MQ Queue Manager.
Configuring a queue manager to use the API exit
To configure a queue manager to use the API exit, you can either use MQ Explorer (for Microsoft Windows and Linux systems) or modify the qm.ini file for the queue manager (for Microsoft Windows and Linux systems ).
Configuring a queue manager to support sift-and-pass-through stubbing
A diverted queue rules namelist is required by Integration Tester to support sift-and-pass-through stubbing on an IBM WebSphere MQ transport. The sift-and-pass-through capability enables Rational Integration Tester to see a message in a queue before the "real" service sees it and determine whether to process it.
Security settings for MQ exit resources
If you have enabled security for the queue manager, you must configure certain security settings in the queue manager for the Rational Integration Tester MQ exit resources to access the Integration Tester intercept queue.
Additional configuration steps if the Rational Integration Tester user cannot be given queue create permission
As of release 9.2, Rational Integration Tester uses queues that are named COM.GREENHAT.INTERCEPT_LCK, COM.GREENHAT.INTERCEPT.<QMGR>_LCK, RIT.DIVERT.RULES_LCK, and RIT.DIVERT.RULES.<QMGR>_LCK. Which of these queues is required depends on your environment. Rational Integration Tester attempts to create these queues automatically when they are first accessed. If you do not allow Rational Integration Tester to create queues, then you must predefine these queues.
Enabling logging for IBM WebSphere MQ Exit
When you use the IBM WebSphere MQ Exit for message recording or sift and pass through, messages might get lost in the process. You can use the logs for IBM WebSphere MQ to analyze the cause. This topic outlines how to enable logging for IBM WebSphere MQ Exit.
