Procedure
- On the receiving queue manager QM_APPLE, create the receiver end of the
channel:
- In the Navigator view, expand the queue manager
QM_APPLE that you created
earlier.
- Right-click the folder, then click . The New Receiver Channel wizard opens.
- In the Name field, type QM_ORANGE.QM_APPLE
- Click Finish. You have now created the receiver channel on the receiving machine.
- On the sending queue manager QM_ORANGE, create the sender end of the
channel:
- Expand the queue manager QM_ORANGE that you created
earlier.
- Right-click the folder, then click . The New Sender Channel wizard opens.
- In the Name field, type QM_ORANGE.QM_APPLE, then
click Next.
- In the Connection name field, type the computer name or IP address of
the receiving machine (you should already have obtained this with your system administrator's
help).
If the default port number 1414 was not used when creating QM_APPLE, the Connection name field
entry should be of the format:
con-name(port)
Where
con-name is the computer name or IP address of the receiving machine, and
port is the port number used when the receiving queue manager was set up.
- In the Transmission queue field, type
QM_APPLE The transmission queue name you enter here must match the name you entered for the
transmission queue in Creating the queues on the sending queue
manager.
- Click Finish.
- Click the Channels folder.
- Right-click QM_ORANGE.QM_APPLE.
- From the pop-up menu, click Start.
- Click OK. You have now created the sender channel on the sending machine.
Note: You do not have to start the receiver channel because it started automatically when you set up
the sender channel (when you set up the sender channel, you specified the receiver channel's IP
address).
Results
You have now created a receiver channel QM_ORANGE.QM_APPLE,
on the receiving queue manager QM_APPLE, and a sender channel QM_ORANGE.QM_APPLE,
on the sending queue manager QM_ORANGE. You have also started the
sender channel, which automatically started the receiver channel.
