In general what needs to be done on AIX MQ to allow for any kind of remote administration ? I have only created a Queue Manager and Queue. I have no channels or set any special property on Queue Manager. I think this fact is preventing me from using any UI to remotely manage Queue

Jitender, To remotely administer any QMgr you need a few things. First, the Command Server needs to be running. Use the strmqcsv command to get it going. It reads messages off of the SYSTEM.ADMIN.COMMAND.QUEUE which is a default object when you create the QMgr. Next, you need a

In the area of remote administration, MQ Explorer should be able to administer any platform except OS/390, so long as these conditions are met: 1) The administrator has MQ Series installed on their local box, 2) all remote boxes need to have a SYSTEM.ADMIN.SVRCONN server channel defined on

Disaster Recovery for Clustered Queue Managers

Group, Has anyone had any experience with recovering a clustered queue manager running on Windows 2000? We have a server at a remote recovery site that has MQ installed and we create regular backups of the production clustered queue manager on this server using the MS03 support pack. The

You have 2 options. First, have your primary and backup servers in a Microsoft Hardware Cluster, and let that software manage where the ONE queue manager runs. All persistent message data, including Repository info, will be moved back and forth accordingly, Since there is a virtual IP address,

Peter, Thanks for your reply. The MS Cluster is unfortunately not an option for multiple reasons. Creating another queue manager for the cluster does have some possibilities though. The queue manager that I am trying to recover acts as a gateway to the cluster for load balancing across two

All that data is just MQ messages in a queue. So copy the messages from one queue to another. But I doubt it would work. Even if you create the QM on the DR server with the same name, its gonna have a different QMID, and all the data in the repository messages I am sure reference that QMID and

No. If your messages have an Affinity (all the messages in some sort of application defined group need to be processed by one instance of an app somewhere in the cluster) and there are multiple queues in the cluster, you don't want round robining. In that case the queue needs to be opened with

Hi Jitender, Time to RTM. Chapter 2 of the WMQ Using Java manual explains how setup a Java program to run on AIX. In particular, you need to setup the CLASSPATH and LIBPATH environment variables. Once you do that MQJExplorer will run just fine on AIX. I would suggest you create a shell script
