Running MQSC commands from batch files

 

If you have very long commands, or are using a particular sequence of commands repeatedly, consider redirecting stdin from a batch file. To do this, first create a batch file containing the MQSC commands using your usual text editor. When you use the runmqsc command, use the redirection operators. The following example:

1. Creates a test queue manager, TESTQM

2. Creates a matching CLNTCONN and listener set to use TCP/IP port 1600

3. Creates a test queue, TESTQ

4. Puts a message on the queue, using the amqsputc sample program

Figure 1. Example script for running MQSC commands from a batch file

export MYTEMPQM=TESTQM
export MYPORT=1600
export MQCHLLIB=/var/mqm/qmgrs/$MQTEMPQM/@ipcc

crtmqm $MYTEMPQM
strmqm $MYTEMPQM
runmqlsr -m $MYTEMPQM -t TCP -p $MYPORT &

runmqsc $MYTEMPQM << EOF
  DEFINE CHANNEL(NTLM) CHLTYPE(SVRCONN) TRPTYPE(TCP)
  DEFINE CHANNEL(NTLM) CHLTYPE(CLNTCONN) QMNAME('$MYTEMPQM') CONNAME('hostname($MYPORT)')
  ALTER  CHANNEL(NTLM) CHLTYPE(CLNTCONN)
  DEFINE QLOCAL(TESTQ)
EOF

amqsputc TESTQ $MYTEMPQM << EOF
hello world
EOF

endmqm -i $MYTEMPQM
