MQSeries queue connection factory settings for application clients

Use this panel to view or change the configuration properties of the selected queue connection factory for use with the MQSeries JMS provider. These configuration properties control how connections are created to the associated JMS queue destination.

To view this Application Client Resource Configuration Tool (ACRCT) page, click File > Open. After you browse for an EAR file, click Open. Expand the selected JAR file > JMS Providers > JMS provider instance. Right-click MQ Queue Connection Factories and click New. The following fields appear on the General tab.

A queue connection factory is used to create JMS connections to queue destinations. The queue connection factory is created by the MQSeries JMS provider. A queue connection factory for the MQSeries JMS provider has the following properties.

Note:

  • The property values that you specify must match the values that you specified when configuring MQSeries for JMS resources. For more information about configuring MQSeries JMS resources, see the MQSeries Using Java book.
  • In MQSeries, names can have a maximum of 48 characters, with the exception of channels which have a maximum of 20 characters.

Name
The name by which this queue connection factory is known for administrative purposes. The name must be unique within the JMS connection factories across the WebSphere administrative domain.
Data type String
Units En_US ASCII characters
Default Null
Range 1 through 30 ASCII characters
Description
A description of this connection factory for administrative purposes.
Data type String

JNDI Name
The application client run-time uses this field to retreive configuration information. The name must match the value of the Name field on the General tab in the Application Client Resource Reference section of the Application Assembly Tool.
User
The user ID used, with the Password property, for authentication if the calling application does not provide a userid and password explicitly.

If you specify a value for the User ID property, also specify a value for the Password property.

The connection factory User ID and Password properties are used if the calling application does not provide a userid and password explicitly; for example, if the calling application uses the method createQueueConnection(). The JMS client flows the userid and password to the JMS server.

Connections created by this factory connect to that queue manager.

Data type String
Units En_US ASCII characters
Default Null
