Create a transmission queue

Before a channel (other than a requester channel) can be started, the transmission queue must be defined as described in this section. The transmission queue must be named in the channel definition.

Define a local queue with the USAGE attribute set to XMITQ for each sending message channel. To use a specific transmission queue in your remote queue definitions, create a remote queue as shown.

Create transmission queue example

DEFINE QLOCAL(QM2) DESCR('Transmission queue to QM2') USAGE(XMITQ)

Create remote queue example

DEFINE QREMOTE(PAYROLL) DESCR('Remote queue for QM2') +
XMITQ(QM2) RNAME(PAYROLL) RQMNAME(QM2)

Consider naming the transmission queue the queue manager name on the remote system, as shown in the examples.
