setdbparms.txt type

The setdbparms.txt type requires a TXT file that lists one or more mqsisetdbparms commands to run. For information about this command, see mqsisetdbparms command.

To create a TXT file that lists one or more mqsisetdbparms commands, complete the following steps:

1. Create a text file named setdbparms.txt or use another name with a .txt extension. (In this topic, setdbparms.txt is used as the file name.)
2. Include one or more mqsisetdbparms commands in the file by using either of the following formats:
   • Add one or more lines to the file, where each line contains three space-separated values that identify a resource, a user name, and a password, specified in this form:

     resource username password

     For each line, these three values will be used to run an mqsisetdbparms command with the -n, -u, and -p settings. For example, if you add an mq::user1 app1 topSecret line to your setdbparms.txt file, the following command will be executed:

     mqsisetdbparms -n mq::user1 -u app1 -p topSecret

   • Specify the entire mqsisetdbparms command in the file. The entry must start with mqsisetdbparms, and the command will be executed as specified.
   Note: For both formats, when the command is executed, all arguments are enclosed within single quotation marks, and any single quotation marks within the values are escaped. As a result, you must not include quotation marks on the parameters within the file.
3. Save and close the file.

1. Add a line in this format to the empty file:

   flow_name apikey IBMCloud_APIkey

   Where:

   • flow_name is the file name stem of the BAR file.
   • IBMCloud_APIkey is the "apiKey" value in the apiKey.json file that contains details of the IBM Cloud API key.
     
2. Save and close the file.
