strmqcsv (start command server)

Start the command server for a queue manager.


Purpose

Use the strmqcsv command to start the command server for the specified queue manager. This enables IBM MQ to process commands sent to the command queue.

We must use the strmqcsv command from the installation associated with the queue manager that we are working with. We can find out which installation a queue manager is associated with using the dspmq -o installation command.

If the queue manager attribute, SCMDSERV, is specified as QMGR then changing the state of the command server using strmqcsv does not effect how the queue manager acts upon the SCMDSERV attribute at the next restart.
