WebSphere MQ (WMQ) server adapter

The WMQ server adapter interfaces with WebSphere MQ-enabled applications. Any adapter service that includes a WMQ server adapter adheres to a complex deployment pattern. So server adapters of this type are always run by the Adapter Navigator.

When an adapter service is generated from a flow that includes a WMQ node, two server adapters are generated.

The definition of the server adapters in the properties file define what kind of interaction is required during request processing. The MP-MQ-MSGTYPE parameter for the server adapter record defines what action the Adapter Navigator should take. Depending on what you model for the WMQ node in the flow, the WMQ GET server adapter program does not have to run. For example, if you model that the application data should be sent to a target application and no response is required, then the GET server adapter does not run. In this case the Adapter Navigator moves to the next server adapter in the request processing, as modeled in the flow.
