Following are the operating system and software requirements for the Remote
Agent.
This guide assumes that your site is the hub site. Remote
Agent does not require that the hub and spoke sites use the same
platform. The spoke site with which you communicate can be using one of
the following platforms:
- Windows 2000, Service Pack 2
- Solaris 7.0 or 8.0 at the current patch level
- Note:
- Most connectors can run on Windows or UNIX platforms, but some can
run only on specific operating systems. Consult your specific connector
documentation for details.
The hub site requires that the following InterChange Server components and
third-party software be installed:
- InterChange Server version 4.3.
- Connector controllers that correspond to the specific connector agents
that are to be installed at the spoke sites
- WebSphere MQ 5.3 Server
- WebSphere MQ Internet Pass Through (MQIPT) -- used for HTTP/HTTPS
configuration option
The spoke sites do not require installation of the InterChange Server
system, but do require installation of the following components and
third-party software:
- One or more connector agents that correspond to connector
controllers installed at the hub site
- WebSphere MQ 5.3 Server
- WebSphere MQ Internet Pass Through (MQIPT) -- used for HTTP/HTTPS
configuration option
Create the MQ_LIB environment variable and set its value to the
path of the java\lib or java/lib directory. For
example:
- Windows: C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere
MQ\Java\lib
- Solaris: /opt/mqm/java/lib
