Notes:

  1. We can change the

    <mqmdata directory> in the mqs.ini file.

  2. The queue manager name can be up to 48 characters in length. However, this does not guarantee that the name is valid or unique. Therefore, a directory name is generated based on the queue manager name. This process is known as name transformation.
