Kofax Reporting Administrator's Guide

Configuring IBM WebSphere MQ

It is recommended to use a dedicated Queue Manager for Kofax Reporting. It is possible

reuse an existing Queue Manager, however, if the WSA is configured for "Check Dead Letter

Queue", it will take all messages from the dead letter queue (including possibly messages that

do not belong to Kofax Reporting).

2 Do one of the following:

▪ If you install MQ Client on the application site, proceed with

Configuring Central Site

1 On the central site, install MQ Server and WSA Receiver.
2 In the MQ Server:

a Create a queue manager, e.g. REPORTING.QUEUE.MANAGER. Enable Create

server-connection channel. Create a listener configured for TCP/IP. Specify the names

of the local queue and local dead letter queue (you create these queues in steps b and

c).

b Create a local queue, e.g. 2REPORTING.QUEUE. Set the "Default persistence" to

"Persistent".

c Create a local dead letter queue, e.g. REPORTINGDEADLETTER.QUEUE using

the SYSTEM.DEAD.LETTER.QUEUE template. Set the "Default persistence" to

"Persistent". If you don't want WSA to check dead letter queue, you can keep queue

manager's dead letter queue configuration as it is.

d Create a receiver channel, e.g. SEND_REC_CHANNEL.

3 In the WSA Receiver:

a In the General Settings tab, set Transport to IBM WebSphere

MQ, configure MQ User/Password and set Central Queue to

REPORTING.QUEUE.MANAGER:2REPORTING.QUEUE.

b In the MQ tab, you can enable checking of dead letter queue and decide how often the

queue should be checked.

Configuring Application Site (with MQ Server)

1 On the application site, install MQ Server and WSA Sender.
2 In the MQ Server:

a Create a queue manager, e.g. "REPORTING.CLIENT.QUEUE.MANAGER" with its

local and dead letter queue.

b Optionally, for convenience, you can add a remote queue manager, e.g.

REPORTING.CLIENT.QUEUE.MANAGER and connect to MQ Server in the central

site. You can now manage the server on the application site from the central site.

c Create a local transmission queue, e.g. REPORTING.TRANSMISSION.QUEUE. Set

the Default persistence to Persistent and Usage to Transmission.
