Node installation failure with MQ registry connection type

We are trying to install a new node on MQ server, with the Enterprise node located on another server/QM.

Channels are defined between the 2 QMs and we can exchange messages. When installing the node, the step that tries to contact the Registry services would fail because the Registry service would not respond within the time limit.

When looking at the problem, we discovered that the message sent by the process ends up in the DLQ of the Enterprise node QM because it tries to deliver to the MIM.NewNodeName.DIRECTORY.SERVICE, which of course doesn't exist.

Does anybody have an idea what is happening?

What version of MIM and MQ?

Can you post your config.rsp for your new node? Can you display the log of the failed Registry Service attempt?

Jean-Philippe Plourde

MIM 8.5.1 & MQ 7.0.1

config.rsp;

Is this the config for the new node or the Enterprise Server? I noticed the local qmgr is ENT_SVR and the Registry uses the same qmgr.

Jean-Philippe Plourde

That's the Entreprise node config. Couldn't find a config.rsp on the client node - maybe that's part of the problem.

Ethan Beisher

What platform is it?

Jean-Philippe Plourde

win 2003 for server and xp sp3 for client node.

Ethan Beisher

The file is located at [install_dir]\bin\config.rsp.

If you don't see it, please post a listing of your bin directory.

By the way is your XP 32 bit or 64 bit?

Jean-Philippe Plourde

32 bits for client and server

We re-ran the install and got a config.rsp file this time;

install_path               = C:\Program Files\Metastorm\MIM

jmx_port                   = 10012
registry_qmgr              = ENV_TEST
manager_qmgr               = $(local_qmgr)
mqserver_port              = 1400
local_hostname             = client.test.com

Ethan Beisher

This appears to be your problem:

q_prefix = MIM.NODET.

You need to use the same Queue Prefix as your server node.

You can either re-run the installation or simply edit the config.rsp and run the configure command shell program.

Ethan

Jean-Philippe Plourde

You were right. Worked fine after changing the prefix to MIM.

Looks like we didn't read the installation guide properly...

Doug Johnson

Thanks for reporting your results back to the community [J-P Plourde]. Much appreciated.

Sounds like you're having beter success now.
