Remote administration from a local queue manager

 

This section tells you how to administer a remote queue manager from a local queue manager using MQSC and PCF commands.

Preparing the queues and channels is essentially the same for both MQSC and PCF commands. In this book, the examples show MQSC commands, because they are easier to understand. For more information about writing administration programs using PCF commands, see WebSphere MQ Programmable Command Formats and Administration Interface.

You send MQSC commands to a remote queue manager either interactively or from a text file containing the commands. The remote queue manager might be on the same machine or, more typically, on a different machine. We can remotely administer queue managers in other WebSphere MQ environments, including UNIX systems, Windows systems, i5/OS, and z/OS.

To implement remote administration, create specific objects. Unless you have specialized requirements, you should find that the default values (for example, for maximum message length) are sufficient.
