IBM MQ V8 Advanced System Administration for zOS (WM312G)

 

Who should attend

This course is designed for z/OS IBM MQ administrators and other technical professionals who are responsible for IBM MQ security, architecture, availability, and performance-related tasks.

Prerequisites

Before taking this course, you should:

  • Successfully complete IBM MQ V8 System Administration for z/OS (WM302G), or have equivalent experience
  • Be proficient working with z/OS, or successfully complete Fundamental System Skills in z/OS (ES10G)

Course Objectives

This course focuses on advanced IBM MQ for z/OS skills. After a baseline of IBM MQ topics, the course continues with channel security, the need to use TLS ciphers in response to current security threats, and channel authorization rules. The course also covers queue-sharing groups, queue-sharing group updates, and distributed and intra-group queuing with queue-sharing groups. Other topics include the 8-byte relative byte address and buffers above the 2-GB bar features of IBM MQ V8, the use of IBM MQ accounting and statistics, how to capture and review information to resolve or mitigate performance and capacity problems, and how to create application profiles.

Hands-on lab exercises throughout the course reinforce the lectures and provide familiarity with advanced tasks and updated capabilities.
