Select this check box to use the ActiveMQ failover transport. For more information about the failover transport, see Failover Transport Reference.

This check box is available only when ActiveMQ is selected from the MQ server drop-down list and the Static Discovery check box is cleared.

Static Discovery

Select this check box to use the ActiveMQ static transport discovery mechanism. For more information about the static transport, see Static Transport Reference.

This check box is available only when ActiveMQ is selected from the MQ server list and the Failover check box is cleared.

URI parameters

Enter the URI parameters.

This field is available only when the Failover or Static Discovery check box is selected.

MQ server

Select the type of the MQ server(s) to be connected from the drop-down list, either ActiveMQ or WebSphere MQ.

Use SSL Transport

Select this check box to use the ActiveMQ SSL transport. For more information about the SSL transport, see SSL Transport Reference.

This check box is available only when ActiveMQ is selected from the MQ server list.

Host

The host name or IP address of the MQ server.

Port

The listening port of the MQ server.

Username and Password

User authentication credentials.

To enter the password, click the [...] button next to the password field, and then in the pop-up dialog box enter the password between double quotes and click OK to save the settings.

Use Transacted

Select this check box to set the session created to be transacted.

Channel

Specify the name of the channel through which the connection is established. The default value is DC.SVRCONN.

This field is available only when WebSphere MQ is selected from the MQ server drop-down list.

Use or register a shared Connection

Select this check box to share your connection or use a connection shared by a parent or child Job. This allows you to share one single connection among several connection components from different Job levels that can be either parent or child.

This option is incompatible with the Use dynamic job and Use an independent process to run subJob options of the tRunJob component. Using a shared connection together with a tRunJob component with either of these two options enabled will cause your Job to fail.

Shared Connection Name

Enter the shared connection name.

This field is available only when the Use or register a shared Connection check box is selected.

Additional options

Define the additional transport options in the table. This table is available only when the Failover or Static Discovery check box in the Basic settings view is selected.

• Option name: the name of the option.

• Option value: the value of the option.

For example, enter maxReconnectAttempts in the Option name field and then 0 in the Option value field so that no attempt is made to retry the connection when no server is available.

For more information about the failover transport options, see Failover Transport Reference.

For more information about the static discovery transport options, see Static Transport Reference.

Set Cipher Suite

Select this check box to enable the Cipher Suite list from which you can specify the Cipher Suite to be used with WebSphere MQ SSL.

For further information about Cipher Suite, see CipherSpecs and their equivalent CipherSuites supported by IBM WebSphere MQ.

Global Variables

ERROR_MESSAGE: the error message generated by the component when an error occurs. This is an After variable and it returns a string. This variable functions only if the Die on error check box is cleared, if the component has this check box.

A Flow variable functions during the execution of a component while an After variable functions after the execution of the component.

To fill up a field or expression with a variable, press Ctrl + Space to access the variable list and choose the variable to use from it.

For further information about variables, see Talend Studio User Guide.
