Hi Didi,

my site are major IMS users, and we use OTMA for messages where IMS is the
back end (server) application. When IMS is sending datagram or request
messages, we use the MQI rather than DL/I calls so as to avoid the IMS
exits.

This gives us a compromise which we are hapy with. We can use existing
applications (which were written for LU0) unchanged by using OTMA, and we
can send messages explicitly to other systems via the MQI, which makes our
IMS exit environment simpler. It also makes the code much easier to
understand, because it is clear when a request messages is going to hit MQ,
rather than someone reading the code needing to understand that some exit
in IMS is going to redirect a special destination to an MQ queue.

Regards,

Neil Casey.

Thanks Art,

I am aware of these samples, but the customer we are working with wants to
see something more detailed, they will develop such exits
eventually but they are kind of press for time...

Cheers,
D

Didi,

  You can find samples of these exits in 'WebSphere MQ for z/OS - System
Setup Guide - V5R3', in Appendix B.

  I used the samples to develop my own copies of both of these exits.  They
have been functioning in our shop for more than 5 years in both
non-Production & Production environments, without any problems.

  I suggest spending some time on the initial development, as it will be
time well spent!

Cheers,
  Art

Hello all,

I the book it says the following "To send messages from IMS to a WebSphere
MQ queue, you need to invoke an IMS transaction that ISRTs to an ALTPCB.
You need to write pre-routing and destination resolution exits to route
unsolicited messages from IMS and build the OTMA user data, so that the
MQMD of the message can be built correctly"

Does someone have such an exit?

TIA

Didi
