How to use WebSphere MQ control commands

 

This chapter describes how to use the WebSphere MQ control commands. If you want to issue control commands, your user ID must be a member of the mqm group. For more information about this, see Authority to administer WebSphere MQ. In addition, note the following environment-specific information:

WebSphere MQ for Windows

All control commands can be issued from a command line. Command names and their flags are not case sensitive: we can enter them in uppercase, lowercase, or a combination of uppercase and lowercase. However, arguments to control commands (such as queue names) are case sensitive.

In the syntax descriptions, the hyphen (-) is used as a flag indicator. We can use the forward slash (⁄) instead of the hyphen.

WebSphere MQ for UNIX systems

All WebSphere MQ control commands can be issued from a shell. All commands are case-sensitive.
A subset of the control commands can be issued using the WebSphere MQ Explorer.
