Configuring a unified JMS connection factory, for WebSphere MQ

Use this task to browse or configure a unified JMS connection factory for use with WebSphere MQ as a messaging provider. This task contains an optional step for you to create a new unified JMS connection factory.

About this task

This topic describes how to configure a unified JMS connection factory for WebSphere MQ as a messaging provider on an Application Server Version 6 node. With JMS 1.1, this approach is preferred to the domain-specific JMS queue connection factory and JMS topic connection factory.

If you want to configure a JMS queue connection factory or topic factory, see the related tasks.

To browse or configure a unified JMS connection factory for use with WebSphere MQ as a messaging provider, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:

Procedure

  1. In the navigation pane, click Resources > JMS > JMS providers .
  2. Select the WebSphere MQ messaging provider that you want to support the JMS destination.
  3. Optional: Change the Scope setting to the level at which the connection factory is visible to applications.
  4. In the contents pane, under Additional Properties, click Connection factories This displays a table listing any existing unified JMS connection factories, with a summary of their properties.
  5. To browse or change the properties of an existing unified JMS connection factory, click its name in the list. Otherwise, to create a new connection factory, complete the following steps:
    1. Click New in the content pane.
    2. Specify the following required properties. You can specify other properties, as described in a later step.
      Name
      The name by which this connection factory is known for administrative purposes within IBM WebSphere Application Server.
      JNDI name
      The JNDI name that is used to bind the connection factory into the namespace.
      CCSID
      The coded character set identifier for use with the WebSphere MQ queue manager; for example: 850.
    3. Click Apply. This defines the JMS connection factory to WebSphere Application Server, and enables you to browse or change additional properties.
  6. Optional: Change properties for the unified JMS connection factory, according to your needs.
  7. Optional: Change connection pool properties and session pool properties, according to your needs.
  8. Configure a non-default SSL repertoire. To do this, specify a custom property on the connection factory with name ssl.repertoire and a value of the name of the repertoire alias to be used. A list of available repertoire aliases can be found by navigating to Security > SSL certificate and key management > SSL configurations. For WebSphere MQ the only settings in the SSL configuration that are used are:
    • Location of the Trust store and its password
    • Location of the Key store and its password
    Information about supported SSL cipher suites is ignored by the WebSphere MQ client.
  9. Click OK.
  10. Save any changes to the master configuration.
  11. To have the changed configuration take effect, stop then restart the application server.
