Configuration parameters for an LU 6.2 connection

The following worksheet lists all the parameters required to set up communication from a z/OS® system to one of the other IBM® MQ platforms. The worksheet shows examples of the parameters, which have been tested in a working environment, and leaves space for you to enter your own values.

Use the worksheet in this section with the worksheet in the section for the platform to which you are connecting.

The steps required to set up an LU 6.2 connection are described in Establishing an LU 6.2 connection into a queue-sharing group, with numbered cross-references to the parameters on the worksheet.

Numbers in the Reference column indicate that the value must match that in the appropriate worksheet elsewhere in this section. The examples that follow in this section refer to the values in the ID column. The entries in the Parameter Name column are explained in Explanation of terms.
