Reply-to queue aliases

 

Optionally, an application can specify the name of a reply-to queue when it puts a request message on a queue.

If the application that processes the message extracts the name of the reply-to queue, it knows where to send the reply message, if required.

A reply-to queue alias is the process by which a reply-to queue, as specified in a request message, is altered by a queue manager on the message route. The sending application is not aware that the reply-to queue name specified is an alias.

A reply-to queue alias lets you alter the name of the reply-to queue and optionally its queue manager. This in turn lets you control which route is used for reply messages.

For more information about request messages, reply messages, and reply-to queues, see the WebSphere MQ Application Programming Guide.
