Configuring JMS11 adapter in Sterling B2B Integrator to connect to WSMQ server
To connect the JMS adapter with WSMQ, we need to first create JMS Administered objects on the WSMQ server and then provide the corresponding details in the JMS Adapter. This can be done using FileSystem context,LDAP Server and the more generic JNDI context. In the below article I have described usage of FileSystem and JNDI Context.
Creation of JMS Adminstered objects on WSMQ using FileSystemContext:
1.Open WSMQ Explorer and in the Navigator on the left hand side select “JMS Adminstered Objects”.
2.Right click and select “Add Initial Context...”, in the pop-up select the “File System” radio button.
3.Browse and select a folder as the Bindings Directory (The bindings file will be created in this directory) and then click on finish
4.Expand the newly added context factory to create new “ConnectionFactory” and “Queue/Topic” objects as described below.
4a. Creating a new “Connection Factory”, choose below options for default values
| Name |
Name you intended |
| Type |
Connection Factory |
| Transport |
MQ Client |
| Connection -> Base Queue Manager |
Queue manager which has the channel and the queue/topic Objects. These queue manager will internally be used by the JMS administered object for sending/receiving messages.
|
| Connection ->Connection List |
IP of the machine where your WSMQ is installed |
| Channels-> Channel |
server-connection-channel |

4b. Creating a new Destination
| Name |
Name you intended |
| Type |
Queue/Topic |
| General->Queue Manager |
Name of QM we used while creating Connection Factory |
| Queue |
Any Queue which is under queue manager we configured |
Snap shot of sample destinations created.
5.Now go to the directory, which was selected as the bindings directory while creating the “Initial Context”, this folder will contain the bindings file. Edit this file and replace all occurrences of localhost with the IP address of the machine which hosts the WSMQ server.
6. Copy this .bindings file to the machine were SI is installed
7. Copy this .bindings file to the machine were SI is installed
Configure JMS11 Adapter with FileSystem Context on Sterling B2B Integrator
1. Go to Deployment -> Services -> Configuration -> Choose JMS 11 Acquire Connection Service
| Pool Name |
JMS 11 Acquire Connection (Any pool you intended to use) |
| Context Factory |
com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory |
| URL |
file:///<path of the folder where the bindings file is copied into> |
| Destination Type |
Queue /Topic |
| Connection Factory |
Name of the Connection Factory we created on WSMQ |
| Connections Username |
user who is in the mqm user group in the connection username/password field |
| Connections Password |
password |
Snapshot of the Adapter
You can also configure the JMS11 Async receive adapter in a similar way. When you have configured the JMS11 Acquire connection service, it can then be used in a business process(BP), along with the other JMS11 services to send/receive messages
