Re: MQ Client on the AS400

The iSeries supports MQ Server - it doesn't support MQ Client. You need to
use the full server. You could use the JMS MQ Client I believe, but not the
standard iSeries MQ Client.

I'd rather use MQ Server anyway - you have more control over the process. MQ
Client doesn't allow initiation of data movement - it uses queues on the
server. I use MQ Client on Windows machines that communicate with the
iSeries MQ Server, and that scenario works well.

I have been asked to install the MQ client on one of our AS400's so it can
talk to an MQ Server that resides on a Unix box. I downloaded the 6.0 client
and followed the installation instructions but no where does the
documentation refer to using the MQ Client on the AS400.

I then did some digging and found that I may need the full MQ Server in
order to use the MQ Client on the AS400. Does anybody know if that is the
case? or where I can get documentation on running the client without the
server installed?


Thanks
