Advanced tasks
This chapter shows some advanced tasks that extend the cluster created in Task 1: Setting up a new cluster and Task 2a: Adding a new queue manager to a cluster.
These tasks are:
- Task 3: Adding a new queue manager that hosts a queue
- Task 4: Removing a cluster queue from a queue manager
- Task 5: Moving a full repository to another queue manager
- Task 6: Converting an existing network into a cluster
The chapter then goes on to demonstrate the following five tasks:
- Task 7: Adding a new, interconnected cluster
- Task 8: Removing a cluster network
- Task 9: Adding new queue managers that host a shared queue
- Task 10: Removing a queue manager from a cluster
We can perform these tasks, and the two described in First tasks, without stopping your existing cluster queue managers or disrupting your existing network in any way.
Much of the information we need to achieve these tasks is documented elsewhere in the WebSphere MQ library. This chapter gives pointers to that information and fills in details relating specifically to work with clusters.
- Throughout the examples in this chapter and First tasks, the queue managers have illustrative names such as LONDON and NEWYORK. Don’t forget that on WebSphere MQ for z/OS, queue-manager names are limited to 4 characters.
- The names of the queue managers imply that each queue manager is on a separate machine. You could just as easily set up these examples with all the queue managers on the same machine.
- The examples in these chapters show WebSphere MQ Script Commands (MQSC) as they would be entered by the system administrator at the command console. For information about other ways of entering commands, refer to Using WebSphere MQ commands with clusters.
