fteDefine: generate configuration scripts

Use the fteDefine command to generate the configuration scripts necessary to define the specified objects.


Purpose

You would expect to use the fteDefine command when some configuration steps need to be run on a system that is remote to the one containing the configuration data. For example, configuring the queues for an agent on a queue manager to be accessed over a client connection.


Syntax

fteDefine

fteDefine-t type   -d outputDir name  


Parameters

    -t type
    Required. The type of object to be defined. The options for type are agent.

    -d outputDir
    Optional. A directory path in which the scripts are written. If not provided, the scripts are written to the standard output stream.

    name
    Required. One or more names of the objects to be defined. To specify names for more than one object, separate them with a space. For example, name1 name2...

    -? or -h
    Optional. Displays command syntax.


Examples

In this example, the fteDefine command is specified with the -t agent parameter and a single agent name. 
fteDefine -t agent EXAMPLE.AGENT
The output that is generated from this command are the MQSC command scripts to be run against the agent queue manager to create the necessary agent queues: 
$ fteDefine -t agent EXAMPLE.AGENT

In this example, the fteDefine command is specified with the -d outputDir parameter and several agent names. 
fteDefine -t agent -d /tmp EXAMPLE.AGENT.1 EXAMPLE.AGENT.2 EXAMPLE.AGENT.3
The output that is generated from this command are the absolute file paths to the locations of the MQSC command scripts: 
$ fteDefine -t agent -d /tmp EXAMPLE.AGENT.1 EXAMPLE.AGENT.2 EXAMPLE.AGENT.3
