Administration using the WebSphere MQ Explorer

 

This information applies to WebSphere MQ for Windows, and WebSphere MQ for Linux (x86 platform only).

WebSphere MQ for Windows , and WebSphere MQ for Linux (x86 platform) provide an administration interface called the WebSphere MQ Explorer to perform administration tasks as an alternative to using control or MQSC commands. Comparing command sets shows you what we can do using the WebSphere MQ Explorer.

The WebSphere MQ Explorer allows you to perform local or remote administration of your network from a computer running Windows , or Linux (x86 platform), by pointing the WebSphere MQ Explorer at the queue managers and clusters you are interested in. The platforms and levels of WebSphere MQ that can be administered using the WebSphere MQ Explorer are described in Remote queue managers.

To configure remote WebSphere MQ queue managers so that WebSphere MQ Explorer can administer them, see Required definitions for administration.

It allows you to perform tasks, typically associated with setting up and fine tuning the working environment for WebSphere MQ, either locally or remotely within a Windows or Linux (x86 platform) system domain.

On Linux, the WebSphere MQ Explorer might fail to start if you have more than one Eclipse installation. If this happens, start the WebSphere MQ Explorer using a different user ID to the one you use for the other Eclipse installation.
