mqsichangebroker command - z/OS

Syntax

z/OS command - BIPCHBK

z/OS console command

Synonym: cb

Parameters

BrokerName
(Required) This parameter must be the first parameter. Specify the name of the broker to modify.

This parameter is implied in the console form of the command.

-s UserNameServerQueueManagerName
(Optional) The name of the WebSphere MQ queue manager that is associated with the User Name Server.

To remove topic-based security, specify an empty string (two quotation marks, "").

This name is case sensitive; enclose the names in single quotation marks if they are in mixed case.

-j
(Optional) Publish/subscribe access is enabled for the broker. This parameter is valid only with the -s parameter.
-d
(Optional) Publish/subscribe access is not enabled for the broker.
-l UserLilPath
(Optional) A list of paths (directories) from which the broker loads LILs (loadable implementation libraries) for user-defined message processing nodes.

This name is case sensitive; enclose the names in single quotation marks if they are in mixed case.

Do not include environment variables in this path; WebSphere Event Broker ignores them.

Create your own directory for storing your .lil or .jar files. Do not save them in the WebSphere Event Broker installation directory.

If you specify more than one additional directory, each directory must be separated by the default platform-specific path separator: semicolon (;) on Windows systems; colon (:) on Linux and UNIX systems.

-g ConfigurationTimeout
(Optional) This parameter defines the length of time (in seconds) that an execution group in the broker can take to apply a change in configuration (for example, an update that you have deployed from the workbench).

A message flow cannot respond to a configuration change while it is processing an application message. An execution group that has been requested to change its configuration returns a negative response to the deployed configuration message if any one of its message flows does not finish processing an application message and apply the configuration change within this timeout.

The value that you set for this timeout depends on the system load (including CPU utilization), and on each execution group's load. You can make an initial estimate by deploying the broker's entire configuration. The time taken for this to complete successfully gives an indication of the minimum value to set.

Specify the value in seconds, in the range 10 to 3600. The default is 300.

The sum of the ConfigurationTimeout and the ConfigurationDelayTimeout represents the maximum length of time that a broker can take to process a deployed configuration message before it generates a negative response.

-k ConfigurationDelayTimeout
(Optional) The length of time (in seconds) that a broker can take to process a minimal change in configuration (for example, an update that you have deployed from the workbench).

This parameter represents the time that it takes for a broker and its execution groups to process a minimal deployed configuration message; it depends on queue manager network delays, the load on the broker's queue manager, and system load.

You can estimate this value by issuing a command to request a simple configuration change, for example:
F MQP1BRK,reporttrace u=yes,e='exgrp1'

The name is case sensitive; enclose names in single quotation marks if they are in mixed case.

The response time of each execution group differs according to system load and the load of its own processes. The value must reflect the longest response time that any execution group takes to respond. If the value is too low, the broker returns a negative response, and might issue error messages to the local error log.

Specify the value in seconds, in the range 10 to 3600. The default is 60.

If the broker is on a production system, increase the values for both ConfigurationTimeout and ConfigurationDelayTimeout to allow for application messages that are currently being processed by message flows to be completed before the configuration change is applied.

If the broker is on a development or test system, you might want to reduce time-outs (in particular, the ConfigurationTimeout) to improve perceived response times, and to force a response from a broker that is not showing expected behavior. However, reducing the timeout values decreases the probability of deploying a configuration change successfully.

-P HTTPListenerPort
(Optional) Enter the number of the port on which the Web Services support is listening.

The broker starts this listener when a message flow that includes Web Services support is started; the default is 7080.

Ensure that the port that you specify has not been specified for any other purpose.

-v StatisticsMajorInterval
(Optional) Specify the interval (in minutes) at which WebSphere Event Broker statistics and accounting is notified that archive records are to be output. The valid range is from 10 to 14400 minutes.

An interval of zero minutes indicates that the operating system has an external method of notification and is not using an internal timer within WebSphere Event Broker.

-y LdapPrincipal
(Optional, but mandatory when LdapCredentials is provided.) The user principal for access to an optional LDAP directory that holds the JNDI administered Initial Context for the JMS provider.
-z LdapCredentials
(Optional, but mandatory when LdapPrincipal is provided.) The user password for access to LDAP.
-c ICUConverterPath
(Optional) A delimited set of directories to search for additional code page converters; the delimiter is a period (.).

The code page converters must be either of the form icudt32_codepagename.cnv, or in an ICU data package called icudt32.dat.

Do not use this parameter to set the converter path if you are using a converter that matches one of the built-in converters that are provided with Version 6.0, and that converter is the local code page for the broker. Use the ICU_DATA environment variable instead.

To change other broker properties, first delete and re-create the broker, and then use the workbench to redeploy the broker's configuration. To change the user ID that is used for database access, see Administering the broker domain.
