Initial configuration of Queues...

[laf23]

I am new to IBM MQ and have just installed. I am trying to create two queues that send to each other (simple i know). I cannot use the default configuration as my IP address is DHCP assigned.

What I would like is a simple step by step guide to creating two queues on a single machine that when you send a message to the first queue it passes it on to the next.

This is a simple test to get me started.

Any help greatly appreciated......

Can you have two queue managers on a Windows NT machine talk with each other, and if so, how?
A: Yes.

This example shows how to set up two queue mangers on the same Windows NT box and have them talk with each other.

The secret is in the port.

*create your default queue manager.

crtmqm -q QMGR1
*create your second queue manager.
crtmqm QMGR2
*create your default queue manager definitions.
*change hostname to your hostname or IP address.
*don't forget the single quotes.

* begin script.one

def channel(QMGR1.TO.QMGR2) chltype(SDR) +
trptype(tcp) conname('hostname(1415)') +
xmitq(QMGR2) +
replace descr('QMGR1 to QMGR2 sender')
def channel(QMGR2.TO.QMGR1) chltype(rcvr) +
trptype(tcp) replace
def qlocal(QMGR2) like(system.default.local.queue) +
replace share usage(xmitq)
def qremote('to.QMGR2') +
like(system.default.remote.queue) xmitq(QMGR2) +
replace rname('from.QMGR1') rqmname(QMGR2)
def qlocal('from.QMGR2') replace
end


* end script one

*create your default queue manager definitions.

runmqsc < script.one
*create the definitions for your second queue manager.
*change the hostname to your hostname.
* begin script.two

def channel(QMGR2.TO.QMGR1) chltype(SDR) +
trptype(tcp) conname(hostname) xmitq(QMGR1) +
replace descr('QMGR2 to QMGR1 sender')
def channel(QMGR1.TO.QMGR2) chltype(rcvr) +
trptype(tcp) replace
def qlocal(QMGR1) like(system.default.local.queue) +
replace share usage(xmitq)
def qremote('to.QMGR1') +
like(system.default.remote.queue) xmitq(QMGR1) +
replace rname('from.QMGR2') rqmname(QMGR1)
def qlocal('from.QMGR1')
end


* end script.two

*create the definitions for your second queue manager.

runmqsc < script.two QMGR2
*check your MQSeries system administration for more information.
*start a listener for QMGR1 default queue manager default port 1414.

runmqlsr -t tcp
*start a listener for QMGR2 selected port 1415.
runmqlsr -t tcp -p 1415 -m QMGR2
*start the channel from QMGR1 to QMGR2.
runmqchl -c QMGR1.TO.QMGR2
*start the channel from QMGR2 to QMGR1.
runmqchl -c QMGR2.TO.QMGR1 -m QMGR2
*send a message to QMGR2 from QMGR1.
e:\mqm\tools\samples\c\bin\amqsput to.QMGR2

Message to QMGR2
*blank ends program.
*send a message to QMGR1 from QMGR2.

e:\mqm\tools\samples\c\bin\amqsput to.QMGR1 QMGR2

Message to QMGR1
*blank ends program.
*get the message on QMGR1 sent by QMGR2.

e:\mqm\tools\samples\c\bin\amqsget from.QMGR2

Message to QMGR1
no more messages
program ends
*get the message on QMGR2 sent by QMGR1.
e:\mqm\tools\samples\c\bin\amqsget from.QMGR1 QMGR2

Message to QMGR2
no more messages
program ends
