Use the following tasks to configure the connection factories and destinations for the WebSphere MQ JMS provider.
You only need to complete these tasks if your installation of WebSphere Application Server hosts enterprise applications that use JMS resources provided by WebSphere MQ. To enable use of resources provider by WebSphere MQ, you must have installed and configured WebSphere MQ JMS support.
You can use the WebSphere Application Server administrative console to configure JMS connections factories, JMS queues, and JMS topics for WebSphere MQ as the messaging provider.
Using the administrative console, if you set the scope of the WebSphere MQ messaging provider to cell scope or to node scope for a WebSphere Application Server Version 6 node, you can configure JMS 1.1 resources and properties. This includes unified JMS connection factories for use by both point-to-point and publish/subscribe JMS 1.1 applications. With JMS 1.1, this approach is preferred to the domain-specific queue connection factory and topic connection factory. If you set the scope to a WebSphere Application Server Version 5 node, you can only configure domain-specific JMS resources, and the subset of properties that apply to WebSphere Application Server Version 5.
For more information about configuring JMS resources for the WebSphere MQ messaging provider, see the following topics. These topics include optional steps for you to create a new JMS resource.
