Use this panel to view or change the configuration properties of the selected queue destination for point-to-point messaging with WebSphere MQ as a messaging provider.
A WebSphere MQ queue destination is used to configure the properties of a queue for the WebSphere MQ messaging provider. Connections to the queue are created using an associated WebSphere MQ queue connection factory or connection factory.
To view WebSphere MQ queue settings, use the administrative console...
- In the navigation pane, click Resources > JMS ->Queues to display existing queue destinations.
- Select the name of the queue destination to work with.
- Optional: To create a new queue destination, click New.
- Optional: To view or change the queue destination settings, select ts name in the list displayed.
Under General Properties there are two groups of properties:
- Administration
- WebSphere MQ Queue
Make any required changes to the Administration and WebSphere MQ Queue groups of properties and then click Apply to save the configuration before, in the content pane under Additional Properties, you click one of the following links:
- Advanced properties to display or change the advanced properties of your WebSphere MQ queue destination
- WebSphere MQ queue connection properties to display or change the connection properties of your WebSphere MQ queue destination
- Custom properties to display or change the custom properties of your WebSphere MQ queue destination
Under Related items, you can click JAAS - J2C authentication data to configure authentication information for use with the queue destination.
When specifying WebSphere MQ properties, the following restrictions apply:
- Names can have a maximum of 48 characters, with the exception of channels, which have a maximum of 20 characters.
- The property values that you specify must match the values specified when configuring WebSphere MQ for JMS resources. For more information about configuring WebSphere MQ JMS resources, see the Use Java and System Administration sections of the WebSphere MQ information center.
If WebSphere MQ functionality has been disabled at a scope that affects this WebSphere MQ messaging provider resource, then an informational message indicating that WebSphere MQ has been disabled appears. In a single server environment this informational message is only displayed when the server is restarted after WebSphere MQ functionality has been disabled. In a network deployment environment the informational message is displayed immediately. For more information see Disable WebSphere MQ functionality in WAS.
A queue destination for use with the WebSphere MQ messaging provider has the following properties.

Resources such as messaging providers, namespace bindings, or shared libraries can be defined at multiple scopes, with resources defined at more specific scopes overriding duplicates which are defined at more general scopes.
