Transactions Managers | Using the WebSphere MQ classes for JMS, WebSphere MQ can only act in the role of a Resource Manager. A 3rd party Transaction Co-ordinator must be used, for example WebSphere Application Server. Using the WebSphere MQ classes for Java, WebSphere MQ can act as a Transaction Co-ordinator. However it is not possible to participate in a JTA style transaction. The WebSphere MQ V7 Queue Manager can participate as a Resource Manager with the following Transaction Coordinators:
| |
Application Servers | Where a WebSphere MQ client application is running in one of the listed transaction manager environments, it is recommended that you contact the transaction manager vendor in the first instance for support. WebSphere MQ V7 Java Messaging is supported for use within the following application servers [see section note 2]:

Multi-instance queue manager | WebSphere MQ V7.0.1.1 introduces Multi-instance queue managers on this platform. For this you will need a networked storage device (such as a NAS). The storage must be accessed by a network file system protocol which is Posix-compliant and supports lease-based locking. Network File System version 4 (NFS v4) satisfies this requirement. Please note that earlier versions of NFS do NOT satisfy this requirement and must not be used with multi-instance queue managers.
