  • 1.  Use of remote queue manager for aggregation

    Posted 02/04/22 10:04 AM
    Do the aggregation nodes allow use of a remote queue manager?

    We are using aggregation message flow nodes such as the AggregateControl and AggregateReply for fan-out of the request to the backend and fan-in the responses. These nodes require default MQ queues (SYSTEM.BROKER.AGGR.*) for storing the state. We would prefer using a remote queue manager instead of installing a local queue manager on the machine running the integration node / servers.

    We have centralized MQ appliances in HA pair, and we prefer hosting these queues remotely. Is this supported? If so how should this be configured so that remote queues are used for all the flows?

    We are using API Connect version 12.x installed on-prem on RHEL on VMWare instances.

    Thanks!

    I think you might mean App Connect rather than API Connect. You might want to try reposting in the App Connect community.

    Good luck :)

    @Hemant Babtiwale - from one of our App Connect SMEs, he suggested:
    "Aggregation nodes require access to system queues on either a local or remote IBM MQ queue manager. Please see https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/app-connect/12.0?topic=overview-app-connect-enterprise-features"​
