Work with administrative topics

Use MQSC commands to manage administrative topics.

See MQSC commands for detailed information about these commands.

• Defining an administrative topic
  Use the MQSC command DEFINE TOPIC to create an administrative topic. When defining an administrative topic we can optionally set each topic attribute.
• Display administrative topic object attributes
  Use the MQSC command DISPLAY TOPIC to display an administrative topic object.
• Change administrative topic attributes
  We can change topic attributes in two ways, using either the ALTER TOPIC command or the DEFINE TOPIC command with the REPLACE attribute.
• Copy an administrative topic definition
  We can copy a topic definition using the LIKE attribute on the DEFINE command.
• Delete an administrative topic definition
  We can use the MQSC command DELETE TOPIC to delete an administrative topic.
