Hi Tony
Thanks for your question on this.
Just to confirm that today the DataStage MQ plug-in does require the MQ
server.
We are indeed planning to enhance the MQ plug-in use the MQ client libraries
and as with everything its position in the Ascential roadmap is dependant
on customer demand.
If there are any customers out there which are interested in this
functionality and would like to be involved in helping us define precise
requirements could you please either submit an enhancement case via support
or contact me directly.
Cheers
Steve

Subject: RE: Using a MQ-stage
Andrew,
Were in the process of setting up a connection to MQ.
We just had a telephone conversation with Mike Carney
of Ascential. He mentioned that the current plug-in
uses the MQ server libraries and thus, requires an MQ
server instance running on the same system as the
DataStage server. This requires us to either site the
MQ queue on the same system as the DataStage server or
set up an MQ server on the DataStage server to access
a remote queue. If we do the latter, it requires us to
pay another expensive license for MQ. Do you know if
there are plans to make the MQ plug-in use the MQ
client libraries instead of the server libraries? If
this were done, we would not need to purchase
expensive licenses that we dont need.
Regards,
Tony Stark
