IBM MQ Preparations(3.1)

The following jar file is required by the IBM MQ collection agent:

com.ibm.mq.allclient-9.2.3.0.jar

Setting up the jar files

You will need to copy the jar file into the specific persistent storage directory. Refer to /wiki/spaces/DRXXE/pages/6209292 for information on setting up persistent storage if you have not or if you would like to know more about the use of persistence. The following steps will show you how to copy the jar file:

Copy the following jar file to the 3pp directory of the persistent storage.
```
cp com.ibm.mq.allclient-9.2.3.0.jar /nfs_share/persistent/3pp
```
MQ Service Jar File

You can download the jar file from https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.ibm.mq/com.ibm.mq.allclient/9.2.3.0. It is recommended to use the jar version relevant to the MQ service that you are using.
Info!

For users of the previous versions, there will be no need to split it into separate directories for EC and Platform as the Platform and EC will retrieve the file from the same directory.
Commit the changes by restarting the platform pod. The pod should reinitialize not long after.
```
kubectl delete pod platform-0 --namespace <namespace name>
```
