Configuration Manager Proxy

The Configuration Manager Proxy (CMP) is an application programming interface that your applications can use to control broker domains through a remote interface to the Configuration Manager.

Your applications have complete access to the Configuration Manager functions and resources through the set of Java classes that constitute the CMP. For example, you can use the CMP to interact with the Configuration Manager to:
The CMP is a set of Java classes that sit logically between the user application and the Configuration Manager, inside the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) of the user application. It requires the WebSphere MQ Classes for Java in order to function, as shown below.

The CMP application can be on the same physical machine as the Configuration Manager, connected by a JNI (Java Native Interface) connection to the queue manager using the WebSphere MQ Java Bindings transport. Alternatively, it can be distributed over a TCP/IP network, and connected to the queue manager by a WebSphere MQ SVRCONN channel using the WebSphere MQ Java Client transport.

You can use the CMP to communicate with more than one Configuration Manager from within the same application:

Using the API, you can connect to and manipulate a Configuration Manager in the following products:

A domain controlled by a Version 6.1 Configuration Manager can include Version 6.0 and Version 5.0 brokers; you can deploy to both versions from a single CMP application. A single CMP application can also connect to multiple Configuration Manager components.

A domain controlled by a Version 6.0 Configuration Manager can include Version 2.1, Version 5.0, and Version 6.0 brokers; you can deploy to all versions from a single CMP application. A single CMP application can also connect to multiple Configuration Manager components.

A domain controlled by a Version 5.0 Configuration Manager can include Version 2.1 and Version 5.0 brokers; you can deploy to both versions from a single CMP application. Although you can run only one Version 5.0 Configuration Manager on each physical machine, a single CMP application can connect to multiple Version 5.0 Configuration Manager components.
