z/OS MQ Client attach feature.

[Ian]

Hi all,

In the V8 announcement letter IBM states the following:

"IBM is removing the Client Attachment Feature, which allows environments
using IBM MQ V8.0 for z/OS, WebSphere MQ V7.1 for z/OS, or WebSphere MQ
V7.0.1 for z/OS to connect MQ clients to those MQ servers on z/OS for no
additional charge."

My question is how will this be done in V7.x ? Is there a ptf we need to
apply?

Thanks

[Paul S Dennis]

If you already have the client attachment feature installed, you don't
need to do anything, it will simply become zero charge. Alternatively,
there is a PTF to enable client channels without installing the client
attachment feature:

Thanks

That wouldn't be done in V7.x, just V8.x. I've never seen an MQ
configuration without the Client Attachment Feature being required so more
than 5 client connections can be made. I'm not sure why IBM is doing this;
is it to generate more revenue or to simplify things?
