QMgrName (MQCHAR48)

This is the name of the local queue manager, that is, the name of the queue manager to which the application is connected.

The first 12 characters of the name are used to construct a unique message identifier (see MQMD - MsgId field ). Queue managers that can intercommunicate must therefore have names that differ in the first 12 characters, in order for message identifiers to be unique in the queue manager network.

On z/OS, the name is the same as the subsystem name, which is limited to 4 nonblank characters.

To determine the value of this attribute, use the MQCA_Q_MGR_NAME selector with the MQINQ call. The length of this attribute is given by MQ_Q_MGR_NAME_LENGTH.
