IBM Websphere MQ : Identifying Windows 32-bit and 64-bit systems - Middleware News

How to determine whether a Windows system is 32-bit or 64-bit.

Cause

The IBM MQ V8.0 server is a 64-bit product and cannot be installed on 32-bit Windows systems.

Resolving the problem

Open a Windows Command Prompt and use one of the following two methods to determine whether the Windows installation is 32-bit or 64-bit. The first uses the Windows Management Instrumentation Command interface:

    Check Windows using WMIC


    C:\> WMIC OS GET OSArchitecture
    OSArchitecture
    64-bit


The second option examines the output of the systeminfo command to identify the system as 32-bit ("X86-based PC") or as 64-bit ("x64-based PC"). This command might take a minute or two to complete:

    Check Windows using systeminfo


    C:\> SYSTEMINFO | FIND /I "System Type"
    System Type:                 x64-based PC


IBM MQ V8.0 server cannot be installed on 32-bit Windows systems, but WebSphere MQ V7.5 and WebSphere MQ V7.1 servers can be installed on them. Although there is no 32-bit version of the MQ V8.0 server, IBM does provide a 32-bit version of the MQ V8.0 client for 32-bit Windows systems. Follow the link below to download the MQ V8.0 "Win32" client install image from Fix Central:

Open a WebSphere Message Broker Command Console: mqsicreatedb BRKDB This command also establishes the required ODBC connection. _ 2. Verify your user account for the broker database. [Linux] If you are creating Oracle databases for 32-bit brokers on Linux® and UNIX® systems, run the mqsi_setupdatabase command before you create a database. mqsi_setupdatabase– Database–Database_Home_Directory Eg:mqsi_setupdatabase oracle /oracle/product/9i/Db_1 Add $ORACLE_HOME/lib to the end of the MQSI_LIBPATH library search path environment variabl...
