Does wM 6.5 support WebSphere Message Channel in MQ Series 5

Hi,

I want to ask about WebSphere MQ Adapter connection configuration in wm 6.5, since the configuration only stated the Server Connection Channel not others type of channel like Message Channel (Sender / Receiver and Client/Server Channel).

Currently we are doing the replacement of websphere MQ. The websphere MQ is integrated with some applications using MQ series too. So the job is to connect to each application that using MQ series with webMethods 6.5 that has no Queue Manager.

What I’m trying to do now is to set up connection MQ Adapter 5.3 from webMethods 6.5 to an application using MQ.

I have the connection configuration already (the Queue Manager, Queue, Channel and Host) which they are will be the mandatory input for the configuration. But they can’t be connected to each other.

And when I made new queue manager, queue, and channel, I discovered that only Server Connection type channel that can be connected to webMethods.

As you know there are two type of channel in WebSphere MQ: Message Channel and MQI Channel.

Message Channel will be sender-receive, request-server, cluster sender - cluster receive

MQI Channel will be server connection channel - client connection channel

From the exploration we assume that now the machine using Message Channel, since they have the sender receive channel as the bridge between two Queue Manager (WebSphere and each application).

So my question is can webMethods 6.5 support Message Channel?

Thx a lot!
