How to configure multiple channel in fabric 1.0 using hyperledger-composer? - hyperledger-composer

We are having more than 3 peer, We would like to configure two different channel for two different group of peers. How to configure multiple channel into connection.json for the fabric 1.0?

The connection profile defines the channel name to connect to, so you can create one connection profile (cpA) for channel A and another (cpB) for channel B. You can then deploy a business network archive (BNA) using cpA and using cpB using the composer network deploy -p command.
This will give you two channels with the same business network definition (same logic), each with their own ledger and world-state.

Connecting one server from single machine multiple times vs connecting one server from multiple machines

I am setting up load test for SaaS platform.
I want to benchmark 20 clients connect to SaaS Platform and push some data.
Each client can send maximum of 2 MB and average of 200 Bytes data to SaaS endpoint.
Which one testing is better setting up 20 Clients on single machine or setting up 20 Clients on 5 different machines?
I want to know from TCP stack point of view?
Now when we run 20 clients in a single machine, it will create connection to same destination address and destination port but 20 different Source Ports.
However in background will it use same TCP connection to push data of 20 clients?
From "TCP stack" point of view one "client" == one "connection". If the server doesn't have any background logic to check source IP address in order to restrict requests rate - you can go for a single machine.
See Connection establishment for more information.
In general you need to mimic real life usage of the SaaS platform by end users (or upstream/downstream systems) as close as possible so carefully choose a load testing tool which can produce the same network footprint in terms of creating connection, re-using it and keeping it alive

IBM MQ - how to connect to Queue manager with multiple connections names ( one is fail over)

I am quite new to IBM MQ's. Mine is a multi-instance queue manager.
One instance is like fail-over.
How can I connect to them even if one of is down.
I am not sure whether my terminology is right or not?
I am trying to connect using below example now
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ibm-messaging/mq-dev-samples/master/gettingStarted/jms/JmsPutGet.java
Instead of populating WMQ_HOST_NAME and WMQ_PORT populate WMQ_CONNECTION_NAME_LIST with a comma separated list that is in the format host1(port1),host2(port2). IBM MQ will attempt to connect to host1 first and if it fails it will attempt host2 during the initial connection attempt.
If you want the client to reconnect on failure you will need to enable mq auto reconnect like this:
cf.setClientReconnectOptions(WMQConstants.WMQ_CLIENT_RECONNECT);
cf.setClientReconnectTimeout(1800); // how long in seconds to continue to attempt reconnection before failing

MQRC_UNKNOWN_ALIAS_BASE_Q when connecting with IBM MQ cluster using CCDT and Spring Boot JMSTemplate

I have a Spring Boot app using JMSListener + IBMConnectionFactory + CCDT for connecting an IBM MQ Cluster.
A set the following connection properties:
- url pointing to a generated ccdt file
- username (password not required, since test environment)
- queuemanager name is NOT defined - since it's the cluster's task to decide, and a few google results, including several stackoverflow ones indicate that in my case qmgr must be set to empty string.
When my Spring Boot JMSListener tries to connect to the queue, the following MQRC_UNKNOWN_ALIAS_BASE_Q error occurs:
2019-01-29 11:05:00.329 WARN [thread:DefaultMessageListenerContainer-44][class:org.springframework.jms.listener.DefaultMessageListenerContainer:892] - Setup of JMS message listener invoker failed for destination 'MY.Q.ALIAS' - trying to recover. Cause: JMSWMQ2008: Failed to open MQ queue 'MY.Q.ALIAS'.; nested exception is com.ibm.mq.MQException: JMSCMQ0001: IBM MQ call failed with compcode '2' ('MQCC_FAILED') reason '2082' ('MQRC_UNKNOWN_ALIAS_BASE_Q').

at com.ibm.msg.client.wmq.common.internal.Reason.createException(Reason.java:215)
In the MQ error log I see the following:
01/29/2019 03:08:05 PM - Process(27185.478) User(mqm) Program(amqrmppa)
Host(myhost) Installation(Installation1)
VRMF(9.0.0.5) QMgr(MyQMGR)
AMQ9999: Channel 'MyCHL' to host 'MyIP' ended abnormally.
EXPLANATION:
The channel program running under process ID 27185 for channel 'MyCHL'
ended abnormally. The host name is 'MyIP'; in some cases the host name
cannot be determined and so is shown as '????'.
ACTION:
Look at previous error messages for the channel program in the error logs to
determine the cause of the failure. Note that this message can be excluded
completely or suppressed by tuning the "ExcludeMessage" or "SuppressMessage"
attributes under the "QMErrorLog" stanza in qm.ini. Further information can be
found in the System Administration Guide.

AMQ9209: Connection to host 'MyIP' for channel 'MyCHL' closed.
EXPLANATION:
An error occurred receiving data from 'MyIP' over TCP/IP. The connection
to the remote host has unexpectedly terminated.
The channel name is 'MyCHL'; in some cases it cannot be determined and so
is shown as '????'.
ACTION:
Tell the systems administrator.
Since the MQ error log contains QMgr(MyQMGR), which MyQMGR value I did not set in the connection properties, I assume the routing seems to be fine: the MQ Cluster figured out a qmgr to use.
The alias exists and points to an existing q. Bot the target q and the alias are added to the cluster via the CLUSTER(clustname) command.
What can be wrong?
Short Answer
MQ Clustering is not used for a consumer application to find a queue to GET messages from.
MQ Clustering is used when a producer application PUTs messages to direct them to a destination.
Further reading
Clustering is used when messages are being sent to help provide load balancing to multiple instances of a clustered queue. In some cases people use this for hot/cold failover by having two instances of a queue and keeping only one PUT(ENABLED).
If an application is a producer that is putting messages to a clustered queue, it only needs to be connected to a queue manager in the cluster and have permissions to put to that clustered queue. MQ based on a number of different things will handle where to send that message.
Prior to v7.1 there was only two ways to provide access to remote clustered queues:
Using a QALIAS:
Define a local QALIAS which has a TARGET set to the clustered queue name
Note this QALIAS does not itself need to be clustered.
Grant permission to put to the local QALIAS.
Provide permissions to PUT to the SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.QUEUE.
The first option allows for granting granular access to an application for specific clustered queues in the cluster. The second option allows for the application to put to any clustered queue in the cluster or any queue on any clustered queue manager in the cluster.
At 7.1 IBM added a new optional behavior, this was provided with the setting ClusterQueueAccessControl=RQMName in the Security stanza of the qm.ini. If this is enabled (it is not the default), then you can actually provide permission for the app to PUT to the remote clustered queues directly without the need for a local QALIAS.
What clustering is not for is consuming applications such as your example of a JMSListener.
An application that will consume from any QLOCAL (clustered or not) must be connected to the queue manager where the QLOCAL is defined.
If you have a situation where there are multiple instances of a clustered QLOCAL that are PUT(ENABLED), you would need to ensure you have consumers connected directly to each queue managers that an instance is hosted on.
Based on your comment you have a CCDT with an entry such as:
CHANNEL('MyCHL') CHLTYPE(CLNTCONN) QMNAME('MyQMGR') CONNAME('node1url(port1),node2url(port2)')
If there are two different queue managers with different queue manager names listening on node1url(port1) and node2url(port2), then you have different ways to accomplish this from the app side.
When you specify the QMNAME to connect to the app will expect the name to match the queue manager you connect to unless it meets one of the following:
If you specify *MyQMGR it will find the channel or channels with QMNAME('MyQMGR') and pick one and connect and will not enforce that the remote queue manager name must match.
If in your CCDT you have QNAME(''), it is set to NULL, then in your app you can specify a empty queue manager name or only a space and it will find this entry in the CCDT and will not enforce that the remote queue manager name must match.
In your app you specify the queue manager name as *, MQ will use any channel in the CCDT and will not enforce that the remote queue manager name must match.
One limitation of CCDT is that channel name must be unique in the CCDT. Even if the QMNAME is different you can't have a second entry with the same channel name.
When you connect you are hitting the entry with two CONNAME's and getting connected to the first IP(port), you would only get to the second IP(port) if at connect time the first is not available, MQ will try the second, or if you are connected and have RECONNECT enabled and then the first goes down MQ will try to connect to the first then second.
If you want to have both clustered queue PUT(ENABLED) to receive traffic then you want to be able to specifically connect to each of the two queue managers to read those queues.
I would suggest you add a new channel on each queue manager that has a different QM specific name that is also different from the existing name, something like this:
CHANNEL('MyCHL1') CHLTYPE(CLNTCONN) QMNAME('MyQMGR1') CONNAME('node1url(port1)')
CHANNEL('MyCHL2') CHLTYPE(CLNTCONN) QMNAME('MyQMGR2') CONNAME('node2url(port2)')
This would be in addition to the existing entry.
For your putting components you can continue to use the channel that can connect to either queue manager.
For your getting components you can configure at least two of them, one to connect to each queue manager using the new queue manager specific CCDT entries, this way both queues are being consumed.

client-mode="true" and retryInterval on the inbound adapter with Client Connection factory

In spring Documentation --> 32.6 TCP Adapters it is mentioned that we use clientMode = "true" then the inbound adapter is responsible for the connection with external server.
I have created a flow in which the TCP Adapter with client connection factory makes connection with external server the code for the flow is :
IntegrationFlow flow = IntegrationFlows.from(Tcp.inboundAdapter(Tcp.nioClient(hostConnection.getIpAddress(),Integer.parseInt(hostConnection.getPort()))
.serializer(customSerializer)
.deserializer(customSerializer)
.id(hostConnection.getConnectionNumber())).clientMode(true).retryInterval(1000).errorChannel("testChannel").id(hostConnection.getConnectionNumber()+"adapter"))
.enrichHeaders(f->f.header("CustomerCode",hostConnection.getConnectionNumber()))
.channel(directChannel())
.handle(Jms.outboundAdapter(ConnectionFactory())
.destination(hostConnection.getConnectionNumber()))
.get();
theFlow = this.flowContext.registration(flow).id(hostConnection.getConnectionNumber()+"outflow").register();
I have created multiple flow by iterating over the list of connections and
iterate the above code in for loop and register them in flowcontext with unique ID.
My clients are created successfully with no issue and then establish there connection as supported by topology.
Issue :
I have counted the number of client connection created successfully so I have counted that 7 client connection (7 Integration flow) made successfully and they initiate connection from themselves.
when I create 8th client connection (8th flow created and registered successfully) but the .clientMode(true) is not working means the client don't initiate connection itself after first failure means it try for the first time to make connection if connected successfully then no issue but in case of failure it don't retry again.
Also my other created clients i.e 7 clients connection which are created successfully they also stopped initiating connection from itself when they got disconnected.
Note: There is no issue with flow only the TCP Adapters they stop initiating the connection
The flow is created and registered successfully as there is no issue it is because when I run a control bus command #adapter_id.retryConnection() it got connected with the server.
I don't understand that what is the issue with my flow that i couldn't initiate a connection after a particular count i.e seven or is there limitation in creating number of clients.
One possibility is the taskScheduler's thread pool is exhausted - that shouldn't happen with the above configuration, but it depends on what else is in the application. Take a thread dump (e.g. jstack) to see what the taskScheduler threads are doing.
See the documentation for information about how to configure the threads in the scheduler. However, if it solves it, you should really figure out what task(s) are using scheduler threads for long tasks.
Also turn on DEBUG logging to see if it provides any clues.

Error AMQ4036 when trying to add a QueueManager to a Cluster in IBM MQ?

I am trying to setup a MQ Cluster that has the following config
There are 3 host machines, ubuntuvm-1, ubuntuvm-2 and ubuntuvm-3
ubuntuvm-1 has one Full repository queue manager and one partial repository queue manager. QM_FR1, QM_PR1
ubuntuvm-2 is same as above. QM_FR2, QM_PR2
ubuntuvm-3 has only one partial repository queue manager, QM_PR3
Following are the steps I have taken
I have created cluster receiver channels on each queue manager that point to its own queue manager.
I have created cluster sender channels that point to at least one full repository.
I have made sure that the channels are correct, i see the tests pass when I run them through the MQ Explorer.
I get an error when using MQ Explorer, I try to add the QM_FR1 queue manger to cluster (CLUSTER1).
Following is the error.
Access not permitted. You are not authorized to perform this operation. (AMQ4036)
Severity: 10 (Warning)
Explanation: The queue manager security mechanism has indicated that the userid associated with this request is not authorized to access the object.
Why am I getting this error and how do I fix this?
Please shout if you want me to provide more details.
