Configure new MQ queues using scripting

 

You can use scripting and the wsadmin tool to configure a new MQ queue. Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running. See the Start the wsadmin scripting client article for more information.

 

Overview

Perform the following steps to configure a new MQ queue:

 

Procedure

1. Identify the parent ID:

   Use Jacl:

   set newjmsp [$AdminConfig getid /Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/JMSProvider:JMSP1/]
   

   • Use Jython:

     newjmsp = AdminConfig.getid('/Cell:mycell/Node:myNode/JMSProvider:JMSP1') print newjmsp
     

   Example output:

   JMSP1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#JMSProvider_1)
   

2. Get required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig required MQQueue
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.required('MQQueue')
     

   Example output:

   Attribute       Type name           String
   jndiName       String baseQueueName   String
   

3. Set up required attributes:

   Use Jacl:

   set name [list name MQQ] set jndi [list jndiName jms/MQQ] set baseQN [list baseQueueName "Put the base queue name here"] set mqqAttrs [list $name $jndi $baseQN]
   

   Example output:

   {name MQQ} {jndiName jms/MQQ} {baseQueueName {Put the base queue name here}}
   

   • Use Jython:

     name = ['name', 'MQQ'] jndi = ['jndiName', 'jms/MQQ'] baseQN = ['baseQueueName', "Put the base queue name here"] mqqAttrs = [name, jndi, baseQN] print mqqAttrs
     

     Example output:

     [[name, MQQ], [jndiName, jms/MQQ], [baseQueueName, "Put the base queue name here"]]
     

4. Set up a template:

   Use Jacl:

   set template [lindex [$AdminConfig listTemplates MQQueue] 0]
   
   

   • Use Jython:

     import java lineseparator = java.lang.System.getProperty('line.separator') template = AdminConfig.listTemplates('MQQueue').split(lineseparator)[0] print template
     

   Example output:

   Example.JMS.WMQ.Q1(templates/system:JMS-resource-provider- templates.xml#MQQueue_1)
   
   

5. Create MQ queue factory:

   Use Jacl:

   $AdminConfig createUsingTemplate MQQueue $newjmsp $mqqAttrs $template
   

   • Use Jython:

     print AdminConfig.createUsingTemplate('MQQueue', newjmsp, mqqAttrs, template)
     

   Example output:

   MQQ(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#MQQueue_1)
   

6. Save the configuration changes. See the Saving configuration changes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.

7. In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node. See the Synchronizing nodes with the wsadmin tool article for more information.
