dspmqweb (display mqweb server configuration)

Display information about the status of the mqweb server, or about the configuration of the mqweb server. The mqweb server is used to support the IBM MQ Console and administrative REST API.


Use the command on z/OS

Before issuing either the setmqweb or dspmqweb commands on z/OS, we must set the WLP_USER_DIR environment variable, so that the variable points to your mqweb server configuration.

To do this, issue the following command:
export WLP_USER_DIR=WLP_user_directory
where WLP_user_directory is the name of the directory passed to crtmqweb. For example:
export WLP_USER_DIR=/var/mqm/web/installation1

See Create the mqweb server for more information.


Purpose - dspmqweb status

Use the dspmqweb command to view information about the status of the mqweb server.

The mqweb server must be running to use the IBM MQ Console or the administrative REST API. If the server is running then the available root context URLs and associated ports that are used by the IBM MQ Console and administrative REST API are displayed by the dspmqweb status command.


Purpose - dspmqweb properties

Use the dspmqweb properties command to view details of the configuration of the mqweb server. It is not necessary for the mqweb server to be running.

The following list outlines the available configuration properties on all platforms, including the IBM MQ Appliance:

    The following properties can be returned by the dspmqweb properties command on all platforms, including the IBM MQ Appliance:

Syntax

dspmqweb statusproperties-u-a-t-c -l


Optional parameters

    status
    Displays information about the status of the mqweb server. That is, whether the mqweb server is running. If the mqweb server is running, information about the available root context URLs and associated ports that are used by the IBM MQ Console and administrative REST API are displayed. The command returns non-zero if the mqweb server is not running, or its status could not be successfully queried.
    For example:
    Server mqweb is running.
    URLs:
      https://localhost:9443/ibmmq/console/
      https://localhost:9443/ibmmq/rest/v1/

    properties
    Displays information about the configurable properties of the mqweb server. That is, which properties are configurable by the user and those that have been modified. It is not necessary for the mqweb server to be running.

      -u
      Displays only the configurable properties that have been modified by the user.

      -a
      Displays all available configurable properties, including those which have been modified by the user.

      -t
      Formats the output as text name-value pairs.

      -c
      Formats the output as command text which can be used as input to the corresponding setmqweb properties command.

    -l
    Enable verbose logging. Diagnostic information is written to a mqweb server log-file.
