The products listed here are not
required, but might be useful. Except where stated, these products
are not supplied with WebSphere® Event
Broker.
Rational Agent
Controller
WebSphere Event
Broker interacts
with Rational® Agent Controller (RAC) Version
6.0.1 or RAC Version 5.0.2.1 to provide message flow debugging. You
can use either version with Version 6 brokers; if you have Version
5 brokers in your broker domain, you must install RAC 5.0.2.1 on those
brokers.
RAC is not supported for 64-bit operation on HP-UX systems.
RAC Version
6.0.1 is supplied with WebSphere Event
Broker.
WebSphere MQ Everyplace
WebSphere MQ Everyplace® supports
messaging to, from, and between pervasive devices, including handheld
devices such as mobile phones and PDAs.
WebSphere MQ Everyplace Version
2.0.2.0 is supplied with WebSphere Event
Broker.
Tivoli License Manager
To
monitor the use of software products including
WebSphere Event
Broker, install IBM® Tivoli® License
Manager Version 2.1.
WebSphere Application
Server
WebSphere Application Server provides a
secure, scalable, application infrastructure that can ease administration
in a single-server environment.
WebSphere Event
Broker interacts
with WebSphere Application Server Version 5
and Version 6:
- WebSphere Event
Broker requires a full WebSphere MQ product and cannot function
correctly with the WebSphere MQ product
that is included with WebSphere Application Server
Version 5 (known as Embedded Messaging).
You cannot install WebSphere MQ if you already have WebSphere Application Server Version 5
installed, because you cannot upgrade the Embedded Messaging component
to the full WebSphere MQ product. You
must uninstall WebSphere Application Server Version 5,
install WebSphere MQ, and then reinstall WebSphere Application Server Version 5.
- WebSphere Event
Broker is fully compatible
with WebSphere Application Server Version 6.
You do not have to take any special action for these products to interact
successfully.
Adobe Flash Player
If you
want to launch the Quick Tour from the information center in the
Message Brokers Toolkit, you must install Adobe® Flash Player Version 6.0 or later. You
can freely download from the
Adobe Web
site an Adobe Flash Player plug-in for the Web browsers
that are supported by the
Message Brokers Toolkit.
Internet Protocol
v4, v6
Internet Protocol Version 4 (IPv4) and Version 6 (IPv6)
are supported, and you can enter or refer to either format wherever
an IP address is relevant; for example, in the
mqsichangeproperties command.
