Using WebSphere MQ links to connect a bus to a WebSphere MQ network

If you operate within a WebSphere® Application Server environment, sending messages across a service integration bus, you can also exchange point-to-point and publish/subscribe messages with applications in a WebSphere MQ network. To do this, you configure a foreign bus connection that links to a WebSphere MQ network through a WebSphere MQ link.

Before you begin

Decide which method to use to configure these resources. You can configure a WebSphere MQ link by using the administrative console as described in this task, or you can configure a WebSphere MQ link by using the wsadmin tool.

About this task

A WebSphere MQ link provides a server to server channel connection between a service integration bus and a WebSphere MQ queue manager or queue-sharing group, which acts as the gateway to the WebSphere MQ network. The link operates on a messaging engine in a service integration bus to provide functions that simplify and automate interoperation with WebSphere MQ.

Using the WebSphere MQ link panels of the WebSphere Application Server administration console, you can choose:
  • The WebSphere MQ queue manager or queue-sharing group in the WebSphere MQ network through which your messages will flow
  • Whether to enable WebSphere Application Server applications to publish and subscribe to a message broker in the WebSphere MQ network
