TIBCO Flogo® Connector for IBM MQ 2.2.0

# Pushing an Application to the Cloud

This section contains information on how to push an app containing an IBM-MQ connector to the cloud.

The information mentioned in this section supersedes any information documented in the section Pushing an App to the Cloud in the TIBCO Cloud™ Integration documentation.

Before attempting to push the app to the cloud, the IBM-MQ Client libraries must be provided as described in the subsequent Adding Connector Supplements section.

## Adding Connector Supplements

IBM-MQ Client libraries that are not shipped with this connector must be added to your TIBCO Cloud Integration organization. This can be done from the command line or the Web UI. To supplement the connector with additional libraries:

Note: When you obtain third-party software or services, it is your responsibility to ensure you understand the license terms associated with such third-party software or services and comply with such terms.

Supplementing from Extension for Visual Studio Code

Setting up IBM MQ Home for Local Runtime for Windows:

1. Download the Windows version of the IBM MQ client as a `.zip` file and extract it.
2. Set the IBM MQ Home environment variable to `<IBM MQ installation path>\bin64`.

Setting up IBM MQ Home for Local Runtime for Linux:

1. Download linux version of IBM MQ client in `.tar.gz` format and extract it.

2. Set the IBM MQ Home environment variable to `<IBM MQ installation path>`.

Supplementing from TIBCO Platform

As the connector supports IBM MQ client only for Linux on TIBCO Platform, the supplement file for the IBM MQ connector accepts the `.tar.gz` format.

Before uploading the supplement file, rename it using the same format as the connector name (`IBM-MQ.tar.gz`).

Supplementing from CLI

1. Rename the Linux version of the IBM MQ client to `ibm-mq.tar.gz`.
2. Create an `IBMMQ` sub-folder in a tmp folder and place `ibm-mq.tar.gz` in the IBMMQ folder. This creates a folder structure as follows:
   - tmp
     - IBMMQ
       - tibcli
       - ibm-mq.tar.gz
3. Launch a terminal window and change the working directory to the IBMMQ folder.
4. Run the following command to supplement an IBM MQ Connector:

       ./tibcli flogoconnector supplement IBM-MQ

Supplementing from the Web UI

For details about supplementing the connector using the Web UI, see the "Supplementing Plug-ins and Connectors" topic in the TIBCO Cloud Integration documentation.

For details about connecting to the on-premises database, see the steps of tibagent in the "Using the TIBCO Cloud™ Integration - Hybrid Agent" in the TIBCO Cloud Integration documentation.

As the connector supports the IBM MQ client only for Linux, the supplement file for the IBM MQ connector accepts the `.tar.gz` format.

Before uploading the supplement file, rename it using the same format as the connector name (IBM-MQ.tar.gz).

If you are using tibtunnel or tibagent, for the best results, push the application first and then scale it up for testing.
