Reinitializing a queue manager that is not in a queue-sharing group

To cold start a queue manager, follow this procedure:

1. Prepare the object definition statements that will be used when you restart the queue manager. To do this, either:

   • If page set zero is available, use the CSQUTIL SDEFS function (see Producing a list of WebSphere MQ define commands (SDEFS)). You must get definitions for all object types (authentication information objects, CF structures, channels, namelists, processes, queues, and storage classes).

   • If page set zero is not available, use the definitions from the last time you backed up your object definitions.

2. Redefine your queue manager data sets (do not do this until you have completed step 1). See the WebSphere MQ for z/OS System Setup Guide for information about redefining your log data sets, BSDS, and page sets.

3. Restart the queue manager using the newly defined and initialized log data sets, BSDS, and page sets. Use the object definition input statements that you created in step 1 as input in the CSQINP2 initialization input data set.
