Title: MQ Series for TPF 4.1

Overview: Message Queuing Series (MQSeries) is a set of IBM program products which allow messages on disparate physical and logical processing platforms to share messages using an application programming interface (API). Transation Processing Facility 4.1 (TPF 4.1) supports the basic MQ API (MQI) and allows access to queues on the TPF 4.1 system as well as on other systems. TPF 4.1 is unique in some of its support and this two day class addresses TPF 4.1's implementation of MQ support.

Audience:  TPF 4.1 programmers needing an understanding of MQ and MQ programmers needing an understanding of TPF 4.1’s implementation of MQ.

Educational Objectives:

  • Enable students to incorporate TPF 4.1 into an MQ environment.
  • Enable students to analyse and diagnose MQ data flows to, from and within TPF 4.1.

  • Operating MQ in TPF 4.1
  • Triggers in TPF 4.1
  • Aliases
  • Summary
Prerequisites:  Class attendees from either audience should have some understanding of application designs or operating system and network design concepts. Operating system and network design knowledge obtained from working with operating systems other than TPF 4.1 or networks other than TCP/IP is acceptable. Some understanding of C-language is required as a basis for learning about the MQI.
