-
Leveraging existing resources much more widely than was part of their
original design
-
Improving speed of implementation of changes to applications to respond
to new opportunities, ensuring that application design and changes are
focused on business logic rather than infrastructure details
-
Anticipating and rapidly implementing IT changes as your business changes
Service-oriented architecture (SOA) and enterprise service bus (ESB):
In an SOA, a connectivity layer often referred to as an ESB
optimizes information distribution between service requesters and service
providers. Each enterprise can deploy its own unique ESB, reflecting how
far it has advanced toward becoming an On Demand Business.
As key members of the IBM WebSphere software portfolio, WebSphere MQ and
WebSphere Message Broker enable you to begin deploying or widening the
deployment of your ESB today.
These programs help maximize the value of your IT investment by
broadening the range of environments this connectivity layer can reach,
such as hardware and operating system platforms and non-standards-based
programming models as well as J2EE and .NET.
For connecting these diverse programming models there needs to be proven
delivery of messages and data between the applications. The proven
delivery mechanisms of WebSphere MQ and WebSphere Application Server can
extend the standards-based enterprise service bus with reliable
connectivity throughout the enterprise. WebSphere Application Server
messaging resources offer an optimal Java Message Service (JMS)
implementation for use with J2EE-hosted applications. WebSphere MQ
seamlessly extends those messaging resources to non-J2EE environments to
integrate with many systems across more than 80 platform configurations.
WebSphere Message Broker adds services such as message routing,
transformation enrichment, and support for a range of message
distribution options and protocols to improve their flexibility and
performance. You can integrate many types of applications on a wide
range of systems, exchanging their data together in real time.
WebSphere software delivers integration capabilities that enable you to
begin reaping the benefits of SOA with connectivity and integration
through an ESB today.
IBM can help you to grow project-by-project toward an On Demand Business.
WebSphere MQ, WebSphere Application Server, and WebSphere Message Broker
play a pivotal role in creating SOAs and will continue to do so as IBM
delivers enhanced capabilities to accelerate the deployment of an
integration infrastructure that spans the entire IT ecosystem.

Charge metrics definitions:
Value Unit:
A Value Unit is a pricing charge metric for program license entitlements which is based upon
the quantity of a specific designated measurement used for a given program. Each program has a
designated measurement. The most commonly used designated measurement is a processor core.
However, for select programs, there are other designated measurements such as users, client devices,
and messages. The number of Value Unit entitlements required for a program depends on how the
program is deployed in your environment and must be obtained from a Value Unit table. You must
obtain a PoE for the calculated number of Value Unit entitlements for your implementation. The
Value Unit entitlements are specific to a program and may not be exchanged, interchanged, or
aggregated with Value Unit entitlements of another program.
Processor (Value Unit):
A processor core is a functional unit within a computing device that interprets and
executes instructions. A processor core consists of at least an instruction control unit and one or
more arithmetic or logic unit. With multicore technology, each core is considered a processor. Not
all processor cores require the same number of Value Unit entitlements. To calculate the number of
Value Unit entitlements required, refer to the value unit table on the following Web site
With full capacity licensing, a PoE must be acquired for the appropriate
number of value units based on all activated processor cores available
for use on the server.
Sub-capacity processor (Value Unit):
For programs eligible for sub-capacity licensing, a PoE must be
acquired for the appropriate number of value units based on all activated
processor cores available for use in each partition (utilizing eligible
partitioning technologies) where the program runs. Refer to the
International Passport Advantage Agreement Attachment for sub-capacity
terms or the program's license information to determine applicable
sub-capacity terms.

Sub-capacity for selected middleware products:
Sub-capacity licensing on a per processor or per Value Unit basis is available for selected
middleware products. To offer sub-capacity licensing, IBM software products implement IBM Tivoli®
License Compliance Manager within their offerings so that you can monitor and report quarterly to
IBM on the use of the programs on a continuous basis.
More information can be found on the Passport Advantage web site
Eligibility requirements for sub-capacity licensing:
To be eligible for sub-capacity licensing terms on this product, you
must agree to install and configure IBM Tivoli License Manager for IBM
Software, in accordance with the IBM Tivoli License Manager publications,
and to enable the collection of program use data on all eligible machines
subject to sub-capacity terms.
For those machines running programs with sub-capacity licensing terms,
you must use IBM Tivoli License Manager for IBM Software to monitor
program use and submit to IBM an IBM Use Report each calendar quarter.
Multiple copies of IBM Tivoli License Manager for IBM Software or IBM
Tivoli License Manager are not required. You can use more copies if you
need them to support your operational environment, but only one copy is
required to monitor all your sub-capacity licensed products.
Additionally, if this is the first product you have licensed under
sub-capacity terms, you must agree to the terms of an attachment to your
Passport Advantage or Passport Advantage Express contract and submit a
new Passport Advantage enrollment form. First-time sub capacity clients
also have an opportunity to ensure a primary business contact is
established for their contracts.
For more information on required and entitled license capacity, license
requirements, and reporting, refer to Software Announcement
205-093
, dated April 19, 2005.
If you order (this product) under sub-capacity terms, IBM Tivoli License
Manager for IBM Software will be made available to you if you do not
already have one. You must install and configure this tool for your
sub-capacity products. Alternately, you can use Tivoli License Manager.
Once the license manager software is installed, you will be required to

The program's License Information will be available for review on the IBM
Software License Agreement Web site
Limited warranty applies:
Yes
Warranty:
IBM warrants that when the program is used in the specified
operating environment, it will conform to its specifications. The
warranty applies only to the unmodified portion of the program. IBM does
not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of the program or that
IBM will correct all program defects. You are responsible for the
results obtained from the use of the program.

your IBM representative or IBM Business Partner. This extension may be
available for a fee.
Money-back guarantee:
If for any reason you are dissatisfied with the program and you are
the original licensee, you may obtain a refund of the amount you paid for
it, if within 30 days of your invoice date you return the program and its
PoE to the party from whom you obtained it. If you downloaded the
program, you may contact the party from whom you acquired it for
instructions on how to obtain the refund.
-
For programs acquired under the IBM International Passport Advantage
Agreement, this term applies only to your first acquisition of the
program.
-
For programs acquired under any of IBM's On/Off CoD software offerings,
this term does not apply since these offerings apply to programs already
acquired and in use by you.

Use of components on separate machines
The various program-unique terms set forth or referred to apply to the
program and to its components as identified below, and are in addition
to, and may modify, those of the IBM International Program License
Agreement.
1. Charging and license use management
Charges for authorized use of the program are based on processor Value
Units. The use of the program on any server machine requires 100 Value
Units to be acquired (from IBM or an IBM Business Partner) for each
processor or symmetric multiprocessor contained in the server machine on
which any copy of the program is to run. Value Units are required for
every server machine on which the Broker component of the program is
installed. You are also required to obtain a corresponding number of
additional Value Units if the program installation is moved to a server
machine with a greater number of processors, or if any additional
processors are added to the server machine on which the program is
installed. Failure to comply with requirement for the appropriate number
of Value Units will invalidate the terms of this license.
On distributed platforms, License Use Management software is used to
monitor compliance. You should retain your original product and all
Passport Advantage documents as PoE.
No separate server authorizations are required to license any other
component part of the program.
Specific restrictions also apply to various components of the program, as
described in the following.
2. DataDirect ODBC Driver Manager components
Portions of this program are copyrighted by DataDirect Technologies, 1991
— 2003.
3. DB2 Restricted Enterprise Edition
Limited use license DB2 Restricted Enterprise Edition: DB2 Restricted
Enterprise Edition includes portions of DB2 Enterprise Server Edition
V9.1. You are authorized to install and use one copy of this program
only in association with your licensed use of WebSphere Message Broker
for the storage and management of data used and generated by the other
IBM program, and not for other data management purposes. DB2 Restricted
Enterprise Edition is to be used only by the internal components of the
program. For example, DB2 Restricted Enterprise Edition can be used as a
repository for configuration information generated by WebSphere Message
Broker and cannot be used to build or extend custom applications that
store business data; this license does not permit inbound connections to
the database from other applications for queries or report generation.
You are not authorized to install any separately purchasable features
that are available for DB2 unless You purchase a fully licensed version
of DB2.
If you use the program with a separately licensed DB2 V9 data server, the
license terms of that data server take precedence over these terms.
The supplied limited-use license of DB2 can be installed on a separate
server from the Broker Runtime, subject to the processor Value Unit count
of the server that runs the DB2 instance being less than or equal to the
processor Value Unit count of the purchased licenses of WebSphere Message
Broker. The installation and use of this DB2 license must remain
restricted to the information related to the deployed WebSphere Message
Broker server runtimes.
You are allowed to deploy the supplied license of DB2 on a separate
server from the Broker, to aid the centralized management of your
deployment and to assist in your high availability configuration. Note,
however, that DB2 must still be used only with data generated by, and
used by, the Broker. DB2 must not be used with other user-generated
data.
Your use of the DB2 and DB2 Run-time Client components is subject to the
terms and conditions of the license agreement which accompany the
components except as limited in this license. The DB2 components may not
be used for any other purpose. Contact your DB2 reseller if your needs
exceed this license agreement to obtain a full DB2 and DB2 Run-Time
Client program.
4. Derby SDK
The program includes an embedded version of Derby SDK V10.2 (or
components of Derby SDK V10.2). Your use of Derby SDK includes the right
to copy, modify, prepare derivative works of, and embed Derby SDK into
applications you develop, and to redistribute Derby SDK, as modified, as
part of those applications, provided that you: (1) agree to defend, hold
harmless and indemnify IBM from and against any and all claims,
liabilities, damages, expenses and costs arising out of or in connection
with your use or distribution of the program, modifications thereof, or
your application program(s), and (2) distribute your applications under a
license that states (i) that IBM (or any suppliers of code included in
your application) assumes no responsibility and extend(s) no warranties
covering its (their) code, (ii) disclaims implied warranties and any
indemnities for the IBM (or any suppliers') code, and (iii) extends to
IBM (or any suppliers of code included in your application) the same
cumulative limits of liability protections that you provide for yourself
in your license. Each copy or partial copy of Derby SDK, or any
modifications thereof, must include a copyright notice as follows:
"(C) Copyright (your company name) (year). Portions of this code are
derived from an IBM Program. (C) Copyright IBM Corp. 1997-2004. All
rights reserved."
5. Message Brokers Toolkit
The Message Brokers Toolkit included with the program includes a copy of
IBM Rational® Application Developer (RAD) and WebSphere Eclipse
Platform components. You are authorized to use Rational Application
Developer and WebSphere Eclipse Platform components only with the Message
Brokers Toolkit, and not for other purposes. (To use Rational
Application Developer and WebSphere Eclipse Platform components for any
other purpose, you must acquire a separate (unrestricted) PoE that
authorizes such use of the Rational Application Developer and WebSphere
Eclipse Platform software product.)
6. Rules and Formatter
The WebSphere Message Broker with Rules and Formatter Extension includes
certain "Rules and Formatter" material supplied under license by Sybase
Inc. ("R+F Code").
The following apply in respect of the R+F Code:
You may not assign or transfer the R+F Code to any other end user;
Sybase Inc. DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE USE OF THE R+F
CODE INCLUDED IN THE PROGRAM, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES
OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE; and
The aggregate liability of Sybase Inc to you for all claims relating to
the R+F Code shall not exceed the amount paid by You for the Program.
7. WebSphere Adapters
The program contains the following WebSphere Adapters packaged as native
message processing nodes:
-
WebSphere Adapter for SAP Software V6.1
-
WebSphere Adapter for Siebel Business Applications V6.1
-
WebSphere Adapter for PeopleSoft Enterprise V6.1
You are authorized to use the Adapter nodes on the same machine as the
program only in association with your licensed use of the program. You
are authorized to use the Adapter nodes only for "unit testing" with a
test run-time environment provided in the program. For the purpose of
these program-unique terms, "unit testing" consists of testing message
flows that use one or more Adapter nodes to connect to their related
applications to confirm the message flows function appropriately. Refer
to the
Unit testing
section.
Any other use of the Adapter nodes with the program requires a separate authorization, acquired
either on a per-application-instance or per-establishment basis.
With a "per-establishment" authorization for an WebSphere Adapter, you are permitted to deploy an
unlimited number of copies of the licensed adapter components to multiple brokers owned or leased by
you that are located at a single physical site, including the surrounding campus and satellite
offices. With a per-application-instance authorization for an WebSphere Adapter, you are permitted
to deploy an unlimited number of copies of the licensed adapter components to one broker.
8. WebSphere MQ
WebSphere MQ (distributed environments only): The program includes a limited-use license in respect
of WebSphere MQ V6.0. For each Proof of Entitlement, you are authorized to install and use
WebSphere MQ V6.0 in association with your use of the program components, as follows:
-
For every deployment of the Broker Runtime component, you are authorized to install and use one
license of WebSphere MQ V6.0 in accordance with the terms and conditions of that program.
-
You are authorized to install and use one WebSphere MQ V6.0 license for each deployment of the
Configuration Manager and User Name Server components. This license must be used only for messages
generated by the components of the Program (the Configuration Manager and User Name Server), and not
for any other purpose (to use WebSphere MQ V6.0 for any other purpose, you must acquire a separate
(unrestricted) PoE that authorizes such use of a WebSphere MQ V6.0 software product).
9. WebSphere MQ Everyplace
The program includes a copy of WebSphere MQ Everyplace V2.0.2 (WebSphere MQ Everyplace). For each
PoE, you are authorized to install and use WebSphere MQ Everyplace in association with your use of
the program, as follows:
-
You are authorized to install a maximum of one copy of WebSphere MQ Everyplace for use with the
program.
-
You are authorized to use WebSphere MQ Everyplace only with messages generated for the program, and
not for other purposes. (To use WebSphere MQ Everyplace for any other purpose, you must acquire a
separate (unrestricted) PoE that authorizes such use of a WebSphere MQ Everyplace software product.)
10. LPEX V3.2
IBM has made certain modifications to the Eclipse Code for the LPEX component, which modifications
are referred to as the "Eclipse Platform Classes". The Eclipse Platform Classes were not
contributed back to the Eclipse Foundation because they are unique to this Program and its LPEX
component. The source code for the Eclipse Platform Classes can be obtained from IBM via an e-mail
request to daniel@ca.ibm.com.
11. Microsoft code
The program contains some redistributable software from Microsoft Corporation. In addition to other
terms and conditions stated in this License Agreement, you may not reverse engineer, decompile or
disassemble such software, except and only to the extent that it is expressly permitted by

INCLUDING OF GOOD FAITH OR OF REASONABLE CARE, FOR NEGLIGENCE, AND FOR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY OR OTHER
LOSS WHATSOEVER) ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE
SOFTWARE, THE PROVISION OF OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE SUPPORT OR OTHER SERVICES, INFORMATION, SOFTWARE
AND RELATED CONTENT THROUGH THE SOFTWARE OR OTHERWISE ARISING OUT OF USE OF THE SOFTWARE, EVEN IN
THE EVENT OF THE FAULT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), MISREPRESENTATION, STRICT LIABILITY, BREACH OF
CONTRACT OR BREACH OF WARRANTY OF MICROSOFT OR ANY SUPPLIER, AND EVEN IF MICROSOFT OR ANY SUPPLIER
HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY DAMAGES THAT YOU MIGHT INCUR FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING, WITHOUT
LIMITATION, ALL DAMAGES REFERENCED HEREIN AND ALL DIRECT OR GENERAL DAMAGES IN CONTRACT OR ANYTHING
ELSE), THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF MICROSOFT AND ANY OF ITS SUPPLIERS AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY
HEREUNDER SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE ACTUAL DAMAGES YOU INCUR IN REASONABLE RELIANCE ON
THE SOFTWARE UP TO THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU FOR THE SOFTWARE OR US$5.00. THE FOREGOING
LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS AND DISCLAIMERS SHALL APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, EVEN IF ANY REMEDY FAILS ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
12. Unit testing
A. For distributed platforms

Toolkit, WebSphere MQ and DB2 on a single Microsoft Windows machine or a single Linux machine
running on Intel® per developer, for purposes of "unit testing." "Unit testing" is limited to
testing of configurations written or generated by such developer to confirm that such configuration
functions as designed. Such authorized "unit testing" DOES NOT include any of the following:
1. Testing message flows on servers separate from the developer's machine. The developer may
create local message flows that connect to remote servers hosting non-production applications and
services in a unit-test environment.
2. Exchanging messages with any production application or system.
3. Simulating production workloads for the purpose of testing scalability of any code, application,
or system in an integration test environment.
B. For the z/OS® platform
The program license authorizes multiple developers to install one copy of the Broker Runtime and the
Toolkit on a single Microsoft Windows machine or a single Linux machine running on Intel per
developer for purposes of "unit testing." "Unit testing" is limited to testing of configurations
written or generated by such developer to confirm that such configuration functions as designed.
Such authorized "unit testing" DOES NOT include any of the following:
1. Testing message flows on servers separate from the developer's machine. The developer may
create local message flows that connect to remote servers hosting non-production applications and
services in a unit-test environment.
2. Exchanging messages with any production application or system.
3. Simulating production workloads for the purpose of testing scalability of any code, application,

IBM has transformed its delivery of hardware and software support services to help you achieve
higher system availability. Electronic Services is a Web-enabled solution that offers an exclusive,
no-additional-charge enhancement to the service and support available for IBM servers. These
services are designed to provide the opportunity for greater system availability with faster problem
resolution and preemptive monitoring. Electronic Services comprises two separate, but
complementary, elements: Electronic Services news page and Electronic Services Agent.
The Electronic Services news page is a single Internet entry point that replaces the multiple entry
points traditionally used to access IBM Internet services and support. The news page enables you to
gain easier access to IBM resources for assistance in resolving technical problems.
The Electronic Service Agent™ is no-additional-charge software that resides on your server. It
monitors events and transmits system inventory information to IBM on a periodic, client-defined
timetable. The Electronic Service Agent automatically reports hardware problems to IBM. Early
knowledge about potential problems enables IBM to deliver proactive service that may result in
higher system availability and performance. In addition, information collected through the Service
Agent is made available to IBM service support representatives when they help answer your questions
or diagnose problems. Installation and use of IBM Electronic Service Agent for problem reporting
enables IBM to provide better support and service for your IBM server.
