MULTI-HOPPING (Gate way)

Multi-Hopping is the process of sending [or] passing the messages between more than one intermediate queue managers.

Note:

For every queue, except remote queue we have two properties.

1. Open input count (IPPROCS)

2. Open output count (OPPROCS)

3. The application which is connected and putting the messages is called “ O process “

4. The application which is processing (getting) the messages is called “I process

PROCEDURE TO CREATE MULTI-HOPPING:

1. Create a queue manager QM1, QM2, QM3.

2. Start the queue managers QM1, Create a remote queue with attributes local queue name (Remote Queue Manager) i.e RNAME (LQ) & RQMNAME (QM3) and the transmission queue called XMITQ (TQ).

3. Create a transmission queue called (TQ)

4. Create a sender channel from (QM1.QM2)

5. In Qm2 create; create a receiver channel (QM1.QM2)

6. Create a transmission queue with name target queue manager name called QM3.

7. Create a sender channel from (QM2.QM3) with transmission queue called XMITQ (QM3)

8. In QM3 create a local queue called (LQ) which is defined in remote queue of QM1 Rqueue(QM1)

9. Create a receiver channel (QM2.QM3)

10. We should have two listeners started and running in QM2 and QM3.
