Server Connections Channels

2004-01-08 Thread Bob Kasischke



I have a WebMethod's
client that is connecting to my MQ V5.1 Queue Manager from a remote system using
a Server Connection channel. I believe
the WebMethod client
is not disconnecting (or ending cleanly) which results in many orphan active
connections. Is there a parameter in QM.INI
or another place
which will stop the channel after a certain amount of
inactivity?

MQ Online Manuals

2003-12-08 Thread Bob Kasischke



Is it just me or has
IBM re-organized there MQSeries websites (again)? All the URLs I had
bookmarked no longer work.

I was just trying to
find the Online Manuals, but they seem to be gone. Anyone
Else?

Thanks,
All my bookmarks use ts/mqseries instead of integration/mqfamily.  It
worked last week.

Re: Losing Message Sequence Number Sync

2003-09-23 Thread Bob Kasischke
NO!!! Only one IP address. That's the whole point of the
F5 Big IP.  The sending Queue Manager (supposedly) knows
nothing about the two receivers.

 I don't know about the F5 BigIP.  However, are the 2 unix
 boxes running  different IP addresses?

Thanks Eugene.  Yes we are using a F5 BigIP and the network admins claim
they have it working on the message level.   My experience is the same as
yours: we are getting message sequence number problems.

 If you are talking about F5 BigIP, I used them in MQ
 network. But you cannot use them for load balancing on
 the message level since you will experience channel
 sequence number problems. However, they can be used to
 load balance on the connection level. Each channel
 connection can be considered as TCP session and all
 messages within the session should go to the same
 queue manager.

Losing Message Sequence Number Sync

2003-09-17 Thread Bob Kasischke



Our site is using a
"F5 Load Balancer" in our network.

Using this box we
are able to setup up identical, duplicate Queue Managers on two
Unix
servers. The
F5 will load balance work between the queue managers. 

The problem is we
lose message sequence number synchronization when the
F5 switches between
unix boxes for some versions of MQSeries but
it is not a problem
when using V5.3 on IBM mainframes.

Does anybody know
what I am talking about? If so then how does the
mainframe maintain
sync?

Check out Sonic Software's (http://www.sonicsoftware.com) and Fiorano's
(http://www.fiorano.com/) websites.  They have good comparisons between
themselves and MQSeries.

Channel Retries Left

2003-08-01 Thread Bob Kasischke



All,
(Maybe it's just a 
defect in the platform I'm working on but) Is there a 
way (in MQ V5.1) to 
display the Long and Short Retries Left values
for a channel that 
is not started? I onlyget a value for
these parameters 
when the channel is started/running and at that point
they have been reset 
(to max)

Re: A question on EDI Interoperability

2003-06-20 Thread Bob Kasischke
This is like asking What is messaging?  It is a matter of
definition.  EDI stands for Electronic Data Interchange.
In the most general sense this email is EDI.

Most commonly it is used to define the (batch) exchange of (Business)
documents (files) between two different business partners (called
trading partners in formal EDI).

There is a national standard for EDI (defined by ANSI ASC X.12 -
(American National Standard Institute, Accredited Standards Committee))
and an international standard (UN/EDIFACT or CEFACT whatever they
are calling themselves this year).  There are also industry specific
EDI standards and some companies have there own proprietary formats
they often call EDI. There also has been a move in the standards community
to define EDI standards for XML. (See OASIS or EB/XML).

To get back to your questions: EDI Interoperability is probably something to

do with the ability of software too transmit/receive EDI standard documents.


How it works?:  I'm afraid you are going to have to be much more specific
in order to get any sort of answer to this question.

MQSeries can be used as a transport method too move EDI documents.

Does it interface with MQSeries?
