Question
Which version of IBM® WebSphere® MQ is shipped with IBM WebSphere Application Server?
 
Answer
WebSphere Application Server Version 5.0 (all releases) contains a component called Embedded Messaging, a cut-down version of WebSphere MQ. The table below shows the level of WebSphere MQ that is provided within each level of WebSphere Application Server Version 5.0 (all releases).
Version of WebSphere Application Server Version of WebSphere MQ
5.0 5.3 + CSD01
5.0.1 5.3 + CSD03
5.0.2.x 5.3 + CSD04
5.1.0.x 5.3 + CSD04
5.1.1.x 5.3 + CSD07

The Embedded Messaging Client that is provided with WebSphere Application Server Version 5.0 (all releases) also includes the WebSphere MQ Extended Transactional Client. This allows JMS applications that use the WebSphere MQ JMS provider to participate in XA-transactions that use multiple transactional resources (for example, databases as well as JMS destinations) in a single transaction without the need to install additional software.


WebSphere Application Server versions 6.0 and 6.1 install the WebSphere MQ files com.ibm.mq.jar and com.ibm.mqjms.jar into the <WAS_HOME>\lib\WMQ\java\lib directory. The tables below show the levels of WebSphere MQ that these JAR files are taken from.
