Starting and stopping the IMS bridge
Start the WebSphere MQ bridge by starting OTMA. Either use the IMS command:
/START OTMAor start it automatically by specifying OTMA=YES in the IMS system parameters. If OTMA is already started, the bridge starts automatically when queue manager startup has completed. A WebSphere MQ event message is produced when OTMA is started.
/STOP OTMAto stop OTMA communication. When this command is issued, a WebSphere MQ event message is produced.
