Create a queue manager

 

A queue manager manages the resources associated with it, in particular the queues that it owns. It provides queuing services to applications for Message Queuing Interface (MQI) calls and commands to create, modify, display, and delete WebSphere MQ objects.

Before we can do anything with messages and queues, create and start at least one queue manager and its associated objects. To create a queue manager, use the WebSphere MQ control command crtmqm (described in crtmqm (create queue manager)). The crtmqm command automatically creates the required default objects and system objects (described in System default objects). Default objects form the basis of any object definitions that you make; system objects are required for queue manager operation. When you have created a queue manager and its objects, use the strmqm command to start the queue manager.

WebSphere MQ does not support machine names that contain spaces. If you install WebSphere MQ on a computer with a machine name that contains spaces, we cannot create any queue managers.
