Preparing to install IBM MQ Managed File Transfer on an IBM 4690 system
You can install IBM® MQ Managed File Transfer on a device that is running an IBM 4690 operating system. You complete this type of installation in two stages. The first stage is done on a non-4690 machine and involves collecting the configuration files, which are needed after installation, and transferring the configuration files and the installation .zip file to the IBM 4690 machine. The second stage uses the installation .zip file to install IBM MQ Managed File Transfer on the IBM 4690 machine.
Stage 1. Collect the installation and configuration files
Complete this stage on a machine that is not running an IBM 4690 operating system. Collect the files necessary for the installation and configuration and transfer them to the IBM 4690 machine.
- Create a .zip file that contains the configuration you want to use as part of your installation, for example config.zip. For more information about creating this configuration, see: Creating an IBM MQ Managed File Transfer configuration on an IBM 4690 system.
- Ensure you have the installation .zip file: MQMFT75.ZIP.
