Configuring an MQ node by using an MQ Service

You can use your MQ Service to configure connection properties for an MQ node in several different ways.

Before you begin

A queue manager must be specified on the integration node. On distributed systems, if there is no queue manager specified, you must configure the destination queue manager for the MQ node.
Create an MQ Service. For more information, see Creating an MQ Service.

You can use an MQ Service to configure the following MQ node types:

Use the MQ Service to configure the connection properties in one of the following ways:

Create an MQ node in the Message Flow editor, and drag an MQ Service onto the MQ node. The MQ node is configured according to the connection details that are defined in the MQ Service.
Drag an MQ Service onto the Message Flow editor to create an MQ node that is configured according to the MQ Service.
Create an MQ node in the Message Flow editor. Use the Properties view to configure a queue that is described in the MQ Service.
1. In the Properties view, open the Basic tab.
2. Enter the Queue name, or click Browse MQ Services.
  The MQ Service Selection window opens.
3. In the MQ Service Selection window, select a queue from the list, or create a Service. Click OK.

Your MQ node is configured according to the MQ Service. You can use the Properties view to further configure the MQ node.
