Basic configuration

We can create and start a queue manager from the IBM MQ Explorer or from the command prompt.

.If you choose the command prompt:

1. Create the queue manager using the command:

   crtmqm -u dlqname -q winnt
   

   where:

   winnt

   Is the name of the queue manager

   -q

   Indicates that this is to become the default queue manager

   -u dlqname

   Specifies the name of the undeliverable message queue

   This command creates a queue manager and a set of default objects.

2. Start the queue manager using the command:

   strmqm winnt
   

   where winnt is the name given to the queue manager when it was created.
