Verify the installation of MQ Telemetry
There are three ways to verify the installation of MQ Telemetry. Any can be used, regardless of whether MQ Telemetry was installed as a custom installation of IBM MQ, or added to an existing installation of IBM MQ.
About this task
Within IBM MQ we can verify the installation of MQ Telemetry either by using IBM MQ Explorer, or by using the command line.
We can also verify the installation by using the MQTT messaging client for JavaScript in a browser that supports the RFC 6455 (WebSocket) standard. A version of this client is installed with MQ Telemetry, and the latest version is available as part of the MA9C: IBM Messaging Telemetry Clients. To verify the MQ Telemetry installation we do not need the latest version of the client, so we should omit step 1.
Procedure
Verify your installation in one of the following ways:- By using IBM MQ Explorer as described in Verify the installation of MQ Telemetry by using IBM MQ Explorer.
- By using the command line as described in Verify the installation of MQ Telemetry using the command line.
