Upgrading clustered queue managers and channels to use SSL

 

  1. The first step is to upgrade all queue managers in the cluster to V5.3 or higher, if they are not already at these levels, and to distribute the certificates and keys so that SSL works from each of them.

  2. You then switch the CLUSRCVR channels to SSL in any order you like (the changes flow in the opposite direction over channels which are not changed to SSL). Make sure that you do not change the reverse path until the changes for the current channel have been distributed throughout the cluster. In other words, change one CLUSRCVR at a time, and allow the changes to flow through the cluster before changing the next.

  3. When the CLUSRCVR changes are complete, you should change all manual CLUSSDR channels to SSL. This does not have any effect on the operation of the cluster, unless you use the REFRESH CLUSTER command with the REPOS(YES) option.
