Supported software configurations

The IMS TM resource adapter is based on Java™ EE Connector Architecture (JCA) Version 1.5.

The following table lists the supported software configurations for each version of TM resource adapter. Supported configurations are paired 1:1 with each version of IMS. To view the supported software configurations for IMS TM resource adapter Version 15, view this page on the IMS 15 Knowledge Center.

End of change
  1. The integrated IMS Connect function can coexist with earlier or newer versions of IMS. See the Release Planning Guide for the version of IMS that you are using for IMS Connect coexistence considerations and coexistence APARs.
  2. Generic Java EE 1.7 or later certified application servers, including WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile, are supported if the IMS TM resource adapter installation verification program (IVP) can run successfully. Only a subset of IMS TM resource adapter functions are supported. See the restrictions topic for usage restrictions. For generic Java EE 1.7 or later certified application servers, IBM support is provided for specific functions if:
    • The problem can be recreated in the supported versions of WebSphere Application Server or WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile.
    • The problem is confirmed to be caused by the IMS TM resource adapter through diagnostic traces.

See the requirements and restrictions topics for more information about support for specific functionality on these supported software configurations.

For a more detailed description of the compatibility of supported architecture, development environments, and runtime environments, including the use of WebSphere Process Server and IBM Integration Bus, see the IMS TM resource adapter supported development environments and runtime environments technote.
