Installing API exits on AIX®

You can install the API exit on IBM® AIX® systems by copying the intercept_aix_ppc32 and intercept_aix_ppc32_r files into the exits directory.

About this task

To install the API exit on an AIX® system, do the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Locate the exits directory of your IBM® WebSphere® MQ installation (for example, /var/mqm/exits/Installation1/).
  2. Copy intercept_aix_ppc32 and intercept_aix_ppc32_r from IBMWebSphereMQdist.zip package to the exits directory.

    The sample scripts containing the distributed WebSphere® MQ API Exit .zip file, can be downloaded from Rational® Test Control Panel.

  3. Create symbolic links to these modules: 
    ln -s intercept_aix_ppc32 intercept
ln -s intercept_aix_ppc32_r intercept_r
  4. Make the exit modules globally executable: 
    cd /var/mqm/exits/Installation1/
chown mqm intercept_aix_*
chgrp mqm intercept_aix_*
chmod a+rx intercept_aix_*
  5. Locate the exits64 directory of your IBM® WebSphere® MQ installation (for example, /var/mqm/exits64/Installation1/).
  6. Copy intercept_aix_ppc64 and intercept_aix_ppc64_r from IBMWebSphereMQdist.zip package to the exits64 directory.
  7. Create symbolic links to these modules: 
    ln -s intercept_aix_ppc64 intercept
ln -s intercept_aix_ppc64_r intercept_r
  8. Make the exit files globally executable: 
    cd /var/mqm/exits64/Installation1/
chown mqm intercept_aix_*
chgrp mqm intercept_aix_*
chmod a+rx intercept_aix_*
