To establish communication between the bridge component and the connector, some configuration properties must fit together. In addition to the communication parameters, the business objects supported by the adapter must correspond to those supported by the bridge.
The following event table shows correlations between bridge configuration
properties and adapter connector specific properties.
Table 28. Event processing communication
Adapter's connector-specific property | Bridge configuration property
(Stanza EventHandler) | Description |
---|---|---|
HostName | N/A
(part of WMQChannel) | The host on which the queue manager resides. |
Port | N/A
(part of WMQCHannel) | The port the queue manager's listener listens to. |
Channel | WMQChannel
(Format: <channel>/ <transport>/<host name>(<port>) | The channel used for communication with the queue manager. |
N/A
(part of InputQueue) | WMQQueue Manager | The queue manager used for communication between the bridge and the adapter's connector-specific Property. |
InputQueue
(Format: queue:// <queue manager>/queue) | WMQQueue | The queue used for communication between the bridge and the adapter's connector-specific property. |
The example in Table 29 shows consistent adapter application configuration
properties and bridge configuration properties.
Adapter's connector-specific property | Bridge configuration property |
---|---|
HostName=fahost |
|
Port=1414 |
|
Channel=CHANNEL1 | WMQChannel=CHANNEL1/ TCP/fahost(1414) |
| WMQQueueManager=TestQMgr |
InputQueue=queue://TestQMgr/ FRONTARENA.IN | WMQQueue=FRONTARENA.IN |
This section shows the properties for request processing.
Table 30. Request processing communication
Adapter's connector-specific property | Bridge configuration property
(stanza RequestHandler) | Description |
---|---|---|
HostName | N/A
(part of WMQChannel) | The host on which the queue manager resides. |
Port | N/A
(part of WMQCHannel) | The port the queue manager's listener listens to. |
Channel | Channel WMQChannel
(Format: <channel>/<transport>/ <host name>(<port>) | The channel used for communication with the queue manager. |
N/A (part of quenames)
| WMQQueueManager | The queue manager used for communication between the bridge and the adapter's connector specific-property. |
ReplyToQueue (Format: queue://<queue manager>/queue) | WMQReplyQueue | The queue used to send replies (to requests) from the bridge to the adapter's connector specific-property. |
Table 31. Attribute and bridge configuration
Parameter of attribute in static conversion meta-object | Bridge Configuration Property
(stanza RequestHandler) | Description |
---|---|---|
OutputQueue
(Format: queue://<queue manager>/queue) | WMQRequestQueue | Queue used to send requests from the adapter to the bridge. |
When the WBI adapter is set up for synchronous event processing, its static conversion meta-object contains a ResponseTimeout value that defines the maximum amount of time the adapter waits for a reply to a service request. The value of bridge configuration parameter PollFrequency should be considerably smaller than this value.
To be able to communicate with the WebSphere MQ queue manager, either of the following must apply:
