Configuration file stanzas for distributed queuing

 

This appendix shows the stanzas in the queue manager configuration file that relate to distributed queuing. It applies to:

  1. WebSphere MQ for Windows uses the registry. Use the WebSphere MQ Explorer to make equivalent changes to the configuration information.

The stanzas that relate to distributed queuing are:

Figure 1 shows the values that we can set using these stanzas. When you are defining one of these stanzas, you do not need to start each item on a new line. We can use either a semicolon (;) or a hash character (#) to indicate a comment.

CHANNELS:
  MAXCHANNELS=n        ; Maximum number of channels allowed, the
                       ; default value is 100
  MAXACTIVECHANNELS=n  ; Maximum number of channels allowed to be active at
                       ; any time, the default is the value of MaxChannels
  MAXINITIATORS=n      ; Maximum number of initiators allowed, the
                       ; default and maximum value is 3 
  MQIBINDTYPE=type     ; Whether the binding for applications is to be
                       ; “fastpath” or “standard”.
                       ;The default is “standard”.

(see note 1) 

  ADOPTNEWMCA=chltype  ; Stops previous process if channel fails to start.
                       ; The default is “NO”.
  ADOPTNEWMCATIMEOUT=n ; Specifies the amount of time that the new
                       ; process should wait for the old process to end.
                       ; The default is 60.
  ADOPTNEWMCACHECK=    ; Specifies the type checking required.
            typecheck  ; For FAP1, FAP2, and FAP3, “NAME” and
                       ; “ADDRESS” is the default.
                       ; For FAP4 and later, “NAME”,
                       ; “ADDRESS”, and “QM” is the
                       ; default.
TCP:                   ; TCP entries
  PORT=n               ; Port number, the default is 1414
  KEEPALIVE=Yes        ; Switch TCP/IP KeepAlive on
  IPADDR=Addr/Name     ; TCP/IP address or name for Listener
  
LIBRARY2=DLLName2    ; Same as above if code is in two libraries )
EXITPATH:              ; Location of user exits (MQSeries for AIX,
                       ; HP-UX, and Solaris only)
  EXITPATHS=           ; String of directory paths

  1. MQIBINDTYPE applies only to WebSphere MQ for AIX, WebSphere MQ for iSeries, WebSphere MQ for HP-UX, and WebSphere MQ for Solaris.

For more information about the qm.ini file and the other stanzas in it, refer to the WebSphere MQ System Administration Guide for WebSphere MQ for UNIX systems, and Windows systems, and to the WebSphere MQ for iSeries System Administration Guide for WebSphere MQ for iSeries.
