Hi, I am working on a design for a real time mainframe integration platform which uses IBM MQ.
The transactions are initiated from a Host platform and are to be sent to a Fraud Detection product, all on mainframe. The integration platform has 2 TOR's which route the transactions to Fraud detection product on multiple AOR's using WLM load balancing. Each TOR has a CKTI monitoring a shared Initiation Queue. Requirement is to have the transactions from Host processed on each TOR of integration platform in a round robing fashion. Please could someone help me with setup of IBM MQ. Case 1 - Host platform and Fraud Detection product are on the same LPAR Using a single Queue Manager with shared Initiation Queue, What should be the Trigger Type = EVERY or FIRST My understanding is that FIRST will not work as the first message on the MQ will trigger the transaction in integration platform which would then keep the initiation queue open and continuously read messages of the MQ until it is empty, rendering the 2nd TOR with no work. Is this correct? Also, if EVERY is used and if the transaction that was triggered fails, would a ROLLBACK put back the message back on MQ (along with the trigger)? Case 2 - Host platform and Fraud Detection product are on different LPAR Using two Queue Managers, What should be the Trigger Type = EVERY or FIRST Thanks Adarsh Khanna ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
