Tailoring the queue manager environment

When the queue manager is started, a set of initialization parameters that control how the queue manager operates are read. In addition, data sets containing WebSphere MQ commands are read, and the commands they contain are executed. Typically, these data sets contain definitions of the system objects required for WebSphere MQ to run, and we can tailor these to define or initialize the WebSphere MQ objects necessary for your operating environment. When these data sets have been read, any objects defined by them are stored, either on a page set or in DB2.

Initialization parameters and system objects are discussed in Defining your system.
