Overview

 

The following instructions give a brief overview of 1) what you do with the MQAI, and 2) how you use the MQAI. Further details are contained in the rest of this book.

To use the MQAI to administer WebSphere MQ:

  1. Decide on the task you want to carry out (for example, Change Queue).

  2. Use part 1 of this book as a reference to the commands and responses sent between a WebSphere MQ systems management application program and a WebSphere MQ queue manager. For example, look up the Change, Create and Copy Queues command in this book.

  3. Choose the values of the selectors for the required parameters and any optional parameters that you want to set.

  4. Create a data bag using the mqCreateBag call and enter values for each of these selectors using the mqAdd* calls. This is described in Using data bags.

  5. Ensure the command server is running.

  6. Using the mqExecute call, send the message to the command server and wait for a response. This is described in Configuring WebSphere MQ using mqExecute.

Using the MQAI is discussed in more detail in the topics that follow.
