Websphere MQ Triggering
What is Triggering:
Triggering is a mechanism that is used by websphere MQ to automatically start applications or channels only when there are trigger messages arrived on queue. It can save system resources because an application doesn't need to be running continuously and sitting in a long running mqget call waiting for messages to appear on its input queue.
Why we go for Triggering:
In order to automate the channel and application we go for triggering.
· In general we need to start the channel manually. I dont want manual intervention to start the channel and need not be continuously running, no need to waste the cpu utilization for the channel to be running if no messages or flowing through that channel.
· Application don't need to be connected continuously even if messages are not coming to the queue. So to avoid such scenarios we go for application triggering.
Types of triggering:
There are three types of trigger
1. Channel triggering
2. Application Triggering
3. Client Triggering
what is TRIGTYPE and what are the different values in TRIGTYPE?
TrigType is an attribute under transmission queue or local queue to enable triggering mechanism. There are three different values available for this attribute.
1. FIRST: for the very first message only the trigger fires and trigger message will be generated by the queue manager.
2. DEPTH: For depth after the depth condition satisfied then only the trigger fires.
3. EVERY: For every message trigger fires and queue manager will generate the trigger message.
Trigger Message:
Whenever Trigger event generated (when certain conditions are met) Trigger message will generate and this trigger message hold by initiation Queue. This trigger message is generated by the queue manager. If in case the trigger fails the message will go to dead latter queue.
Channel Triggering: When certain conditions are satisfied on transmition queue(xmitq) the trigger message will be generated by the queue manager and will plays this message on to the initiation queueu(initq), the channel initiator will be continuously monitoring this initq once trigger message generated it will intimate to the sendermca to pic the messages from xmitq and start the channel.
Syntax for channel triggering:
ALTER QLOCAL(XMITQNAME) TRIGGER TRIGTYPE (FIRST /EVERY/DEPTH) TRIGDPTH(1)TRIGDATA(SENDER CHANNELNAME) INITQ(SYSTEM.CHANNEL.INITQ)
Note: we need to mention trigdpth value when ever we mention trig type(depth) other wise we should keep the trig depth as default.
Application Triggering: When ever certain conditions are met on the local queue the trigger message will be generated by the queue manager which will keeps on initiation queue, trigger monitor is the program which will continuously monitor the initation queue for trigger message which in turn starts an application by reading the application details from the process definition.
Syntax for application triggering:
ALTER QLOCAL(LOCAL QNAME) TRIGGER TRIGTYPE(FIRST/EVER/DEPTH) TRIGDEPTH(5) INITQ(SYSTEM.DEFAULT.INITIATION.QUEUE) PROCESS(PROCESS NAME)
DEFINE PROCESS(PROCESS NAME) APPLICID('C:\APPLICATION.EXE') APPLTYPE(WINDOWS OR UNIX)
Client Triggering: If you want to run a script on a remote machine when the queue is on the server machine , for this we have one solution here is client triggering. These means that you run a client trigger monitor on the remote machine. when something lands on the queue on the server the client trigger monitor will run the script on the remote machine.
Setup:
On server
1) Create a new client channel with chltype(svrconn)
2) Create a new INITQ
3) Create a process with applicid as it would be if you run the command on remote machine
4) Create a new queue with the new INITQ and Process.
Client side:
1)Set the MQ SERVER environmental variable
Syntax: MQSERVER ='CLIENT CHANNEL/TCP/IPADDRESS(PORT)
2) Check that the remote machine can talk to the server.
3) start the client trigger monitor.
Syntax: RUNMQTMC -M QMANAGERNAME -Q INITQNAME
