IBM MQ Tutorials

These tutorials show how to perform basic tasks such as creating a queue manager, creating a queue, creating a channel, putting a message onto a queue, and getting a message from a queue. The tutorials are relevant only for Multiplatforms.

Each tutorial is divided into several subtasks. We can perform each task by using either of the following interfaces:

  • The IBM MQ Explorer graphical interface.
  • The IBM MQ Script Commands (MQSC) command line interface.

    See the MQSC reference section for more information on these commands.

The first tutorial shows you how to set up a simple local stand-alone installation that has no communication links with any other installations of IBM MQ. Each of the subsequent tutorials then builds upon IBM MQ objects that have been set up during previous tutorials. Therefore, it is recommended that these tutorials are completed in order.

The tutorials are designed to get you started with IBM MQ, and do not cover the more complex messaging scenarios.
