How to send a message from WebSphere MQ to WebSphere MQ Everyplace

There are many ways of arranging your routing on the WebSphere MQ system to test the transmission of a message. One method is to define queue manager aliases for each WebSphere MQ Everyplace queue manager that the bridge knows about. This document describes how to use the resultant configuration to send a message to the WebSphere MQ Everyplace queue.

  1. Select the WebSphere MQ First Steps program from the WebSphere MQ Client v 5.1
  2. Select the API exerciser from the 'First Steps' screen
  3. In the 'API Exerciser Queue Managers' screen:
  4. In the 'MQOPEN Selectable Options' screen:
  5. In the 'API Exerciser Queues' screen:
  6. In the 'MQPUT - Argument Options' screen:

Handling undeliverable messages

The WebSphere MQ-bridge's transmission queue listener acts in a similar way to a WebSphere MQ connection, pulling messages from a WebSphere MQ transmission queue, and delivering them to the WebSphere MQ Everyplace network. It follows the WebSphere MQ Everyplace convention in that if a message cannot be delivered, an undelivered message rule is consulted to determine how the transmission queue listener should react. If the rule indicates the report options in the message header, and these indicate that the message should be put onto a dead-letter queue, the message is placed on the WebSphere MQ queue (on the sending queue manager).
