Chapter 2 - Command Aliases
Adapter commands can be specified by using a command string on the command
line or by creating a command file that contains adapter commands. The
execution command syntax is:
-IM[ alias } card_num
-OM[ alias ] card_num
where –IM is the Input Source – Override execution command and –OM is the
Output Target – Override execution command, alias is the adapter alias, and
card_num is the number of the input or output card, respectively. The following
table shows the adapter aliases and execution commands.
Adapter Alias As Input As Output
IBM WebSphere MQ (client)
MQSC -IMMQSC card_num -OMMQSC card_num
IBM WebSphere MQ (server)
MQS -IMMQS card_num -OMMQS card_num
When using an adapter alias with the execution command, the IBM
WebSphere MQ adapter commands can be issued on the command line or in a
command file. Use the adapter commands to specify adapter functions such as:
♦ specifying a particular message identifier
♦ allowing output data to be broken up into multiple messages
♦ retrieving a logical message from a source queue with a correlation identifier
For example, to override the adapter commands defined in output card 1, the
command string for the adapter in an MQSeries server environment might be:
-IMMQS1 '–QMN queuemgr -QN topqueue -T'
This sample execution command string specifies the queue manager named
queuemgr and the queue named topqueue as the source for this card’s data.
The
–T command dictates that a trace file be created to report adapter activity
information, recording the events that occur while the adapter is retrieving this
data.
