Downloading the LTS release for Multiplatforms

Download the latest IBM MQ 9.2.0 LTS base install image from Passport Advantage

To create a new installation, or if new operating system support is added to IBM MQ (for example IBM MQ 9.1.0.5 added RHEL 8 support to the Linux on x86 64-bit platform), download and install the LTS base install image from Passport Advantage then apply the latest fix pack or CSU to the new installation.

For this fix pack, the copy of the release on Passport Advantage was updated for the Ubuntu and Linux x86 64-bit platforms. For all other platforms, after you download and install the release, you need to get the fix pack from Fix Central and apply it to the installation.

Provided your IBM ID is entitled, click a part number in the following table to download either the full base install eAssembly, or any of the eImages that make up the full base install. Alternatively, sign in to Passport Advantage then search for the part number you need.

Also available from Passport Advantage (subject to entitlement) is the IBM Aspera fasp.io Gateway (CJ77KML).

Note: Prior to 1Q 2023, non-install images for building your own IBM MQ queue manager container images were available from Passport Advantage. These images are now available on Fix Central. See Other useful links > Containers near the end of this document.

If you install IBM MQ eImages on a UNIX or Linux-based platform, you must use GNU tar (also known as gtar) to unpack any tar images.
