This course teaches technical professionals the skills needed to administer and maintain WebSphere MQ Level 2 queue managers using WebSphere MQ for z/OS. Through instructor-led lectures and hands-on lab exercises, students learn how to install, customize, operate, and administer IBM WebSphere MQ. Topics covered in this course include configuration, day-to-day administration, problem recovery, and managing security and performance.
- WM310 IBM WebSphere MQ V7 Advanced System Administration for z/OS
- VM310 IBM WebSphere MQ V7 Advanced System Administration for z/OS (INSTRUCTOR-LED ONLINE)
This course focuses on advanced issues in WebSphere MQ communication when WebSphere MQ is running in a z/OS sysplex, such as the administration of the Queue Sharing Group function and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) support for TCP/IP channels. Additional topics include channel exit programming and the statistic and accounting facilities provided with IBM WebSphere MQ for z/OS V7.
- WM503 IBM WebSphere MQ V7 Application Development (z/OS labs)
- VM503 WebSphere MQ V7 Application Development (z/OS labs) (INSTRUCTOR-LED ONLINE)
In this course, students learn how to issue calls that utilize the WebSphere MQ API (MQI), and how to code and use calls to perform various functions, such as opening and closing queues and putting messages on or retrieving messages from a queue. Students also learn other important topics such as controlling message retrieval, writing programs that change queue attributes, handling MQI security, and managing message channels.
- WM510 IBM WebSphere MQ V7 Publish/Subscribe Implementation
- VM510 IBM WebSphere MQ V7 Publish/Subscribe Implementation (INSTRUCTOR-LED ONLINE)
- WF214 IBM WebSphere MQ V7 Publish/Subscribe Implementation (SELF-PACED VIRTUAL CLASS)
The course begins with an overview of the concepts and facilities of publish/subscribe applications. Students then learn how the new WebSphere MQ API (MQI) calls support native publish/subscribe capabilities in IBM WebSphere MQ V7, and about its interaction with IBM WebSphere Message Broker. Students also learn how to plan for and implement security for publish/subscribe applications.
WebSphere Message Broker
- WM662 IBM WebSphere Message Broker V6.1 Developer Workshop
- VM662 IBM WebSphere Message Broker V6.1 Developer Workshop (INSTRUCTOR-LED ONLINE)
This course teaches you how to use WebSphere Message Broker to implement application connectivity across various message transport mechanisms, including WebSphere MQ, Web services, Java Messaging Services (JMS), and others. You learn to use WebSphere Message Broker to develop, deploy, and support applications that use both point-to-point and publish/subscribe messaging topologies.
WebSphere Application Server
- ES685 WebSphere Application Server for z/OS Implementation
This is an advanced course for experienced z/OS system programmers who install and customize WebSphere Application Server V7, along with Information Technology (IT) professionals who deploy EJB and Web applications into WAS V6 on z/OS. Teams of two or three individuals from an enterprise are recommended to attend. Teams should include the z/OS system programmer who installs WAS V6, an application assembler who deploys EJB and Web applications, and possibly a WAS specialist.
- OZ850 Maximizing WebSphere Performance on z/OS
In this course you will learn how to analyze the WebSphere Application Server (WAS) V6 for z/OS performance. Develop skills to tune WebSphere V6.0 for z/OS and its environment to reach maximum performance. Benchmark tools are used to simulate a Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) transaction workload against WebSphere for z/OS, and then performance tools are used to monitor performance data on these transactions.
- OZ610 WebSphere Application Server for z/OS V6: Problem Documentation and Diagnosis
This class should provide a student with the basic skills needed to do problem determination and problem source identification for software errors occurring in the WebSphere for z/OS V6 environment. The class starts by discussing the resources and overall methodology needed to optimize WebSphere debugging. It continues with a look at debugging approaches based ion problem type. Then the largest section of the class covers the practical tools for collecting structured diagnostic data on WebSphere for z/OS problems, and describes how to analyze the output data to debug the problem encountered. Two thirds of the class time consists of practical lab exercises which apply the techniques discussed to debugging real applications.
- OZ660 Securing WebSphere on z/OS
This course focuses on security and security-related topics and provides technical details to design and implement secure solutions with WebSphere. It will provide information technology (IT) Architects, IT Specialists, application designers, application developers, application assemblers, application deployers, and consultants with information necessary to design, develop, and deploy secure e-business applications using IBM WebSphere Application Server V6.1.
WebSphere Process Server
- OZ820 WebSphere Process Server V6.0.1 for z/OS Implementation
This course is a hands-on class that gives an overview of WebSphere Process Server (WPS) V6 for z/OS and how you can install, configure, and administer the product in a z/OS environment. The lecture content includes technical concepts of WPS Service Component Architecture (SCA), WPS Business Objects, Business Process Choreography (BPC), Common Event Infrastructure (CEI), and the deployment tool WebSphere Integration Developer (WID). The course labs gives you the opportunity to install WPS on a WebSphere Application Server (WAS) in z/OS; configure the WPS server; build a business process on the WID development tool; and then deploy the business process to the WPS on z/OS and run it. Troubleshooting and debugging tips will assist the student when installing the product in their own installation.
- OZ830 Integrating WebSphere Messaging into an Service Oriented Architecture
This course discusses WebSphere ESB and the service integration bus in WebSphere Application Server. Specific topics in the course, include defining a SIB bus in WebSphere Application Server and installing the WebSphere ESB runtime in z/OS.
