Re: RCVR versus RQSTR channels

2004-03-11 Thread Paul Clarke
Rao, Changing to use RQSTR channels seem perfectly reasonable to me. If you do this, you might want to consider changing your sender channels to servers. A requester channel connecting to a sender will cause the sender end to break the communications and re-connect back to the requester (ie.

Ben, Nick has described it perfectly. The whole point of the 'via' location is that messages are routed to/from your target Queue Manager *via* this other location. As far as where did your message go ? Well, check the normal places. If you're certain the message got to the mainframe then it

Jan, By q.exe are you referring to my supportpac MA01 ?. If you are, I'm afraid that MA01 isn't really much use as a general Q unload/reload utility. For small text messages where each message becomes a line of a file you can get it to work but this is really for testing. I seem to remember

Re: Impact of Syncpoint?

2003-11-17 Thread Paul Clarke
Depends what you mean by 'impact'. I assume you're talking about persistent messages here. Generally speaking the addition of syncpoint to persistent message operations will increase the performance since we only need to force the log at commit time rather than for every message. Download my MA01

MaxChannels and MaxActiveChannels are global parameters. They specify the maximum values regardless of how many listeners you have running or indeed use inetd. There is no MQ parameter which limits the number that can connect to a single listener. In 5.3 you can have a single listener to handle
