Creating an integration node using the IBM Integration Explorer

On Linux on x86 or Windows, you can create integration nodes (brokers) by using the IBM® Integration Explorer.

Before you start:

If you are using the IBM Integration Toolkit, see Creating a broker for a development environment.

On Windows, you must have administrator access rights to create integration nodes by using the IBM Integration Toolkit or IBM Integration Explorer. When creating an integration node, you might be prompted to agree to the use of administrator rights or be prompted to enter an administrator user ID and password.
If you want to configure the integration node as a WebSphere® MQ trusted application, see Using WebSphere MQ trusted applications.
Read Considering security for a broker.
Check which operation mode you are licensed to use. If you do not set a mode, the automatic default is advanced mode; see Operation modes.

When you create an integration node, if the WebSphere MQ queue manager does not exist, the queue manager is automatically created. If WebSphere MQ Version 7.1, or later, has been selected for the queue manager, the channel auth security is automatically disabled.

If the specified queue manager already exists when creating the integration node, then it is assumed that the user has applied the appropriate security configuration to meet their requirements, and therefore channel auth security is not disabled.

To create an integration node by using the IBM Integration Explorer:

Right-click the Integration Nodes folder, and click New > Local Integration Node. The Create Integration Node wizard is displayed.
Enter a name for the integration node, and click Next.
Enter a name for the queue manager, or select an existing queue manager from the list of available local queue managers. You cannot create an integration node on a queue manager that is already associated with an integration node, or on a queue manager that is on a remote system.
Enter values for your user name and password. On Windows only, the default user ID is LocalSystem (for the Windows Local System Account). Local System is a special account and has no password, therefore the password entry field is unavailable.
You must create an integration server for the integration node. By default, an integration server called default is created. If you want to create an integration server with a different name, enter the new name in Create integration server. You can create additional integration servers using the IBM Integration Toolkit or IBM Integration Explorer after the integration node is created.
Optional: On Windows, select whether to start the integration node automatically when Windows starts.
Optional: Select Enable administration security to activate broker administration security to control which users can complete specific tasks against that integration node and its resources.
The wizard starts processing your request. If the action succeeds, the wizard displays messages in the summary panel. If an action fails, the wizard reports the error in a message dialog.
If you know what is causing the error, and can fix it, correct the error and click Yes. The wizard reissues the command. If you do not know what is causing the error, or you cannot fix it, click No. The wizard backs out any actions that have already completed and returns your system to its initial state.
Click Finish to close the wizard.

You have created and started an integration node.
