You are right! I didn't know you could do that. I was able to add additional WMQ services snap-ons for other Windows servers, specifying the server name.
However, when I tried to add a UNIX server, I got the following: "Could not initialize Websphere MQ services objects. 0x800706BA The RPC server is unavailable (AMQ4127)" This message talks about a COM object, so I guess that explains why a UNIX implementation would not work. I'll try not to complain.. I really appreciate the extra functionality.. Now I've got all my Windows servers' MQ services on the console. Too bad I couldn't monitor the UNIX MQ services the same way. Is there an interface available???

You can see all you see in the mqservices mmc that runs for the local qmgr on NT and control them too I think. I just triesed it yesterday, so not very familiar with it.
