WebSphere MQ applications
When you create or customize WebSphere MQ applications, it is useful to keep a record of all WebSphere MQ definitions created. This record can be used for:
- Recovery purposes
- Maintenance
- Rolling out WebSphere MQ applications
We can do this by either:
- Creating CL programs to generate your WebSphere MQ definitions for the server, or
- Creating MQSC text files as SRC members to generate your WebSphere MQ definitions using the cross-platform WebSphere MQ command language.
You are recommended to use SupportPac MS03 "WebSphere MQ - Save Queue Manager object definitions using PCFs" to generate the MQSC script file. We can download this SupportPac from the WebSphere MQ SupportPac Web page.
For further details about defining queue objects, see WebSphere MQ Script (MQSC) Command Reference or WebSphere MQ Programmable Command Formats and Administration Interface.
