IBM MQ messaging provider queue settings
Use this panel to view or change the configuration properties of the selected queue destination for point-to-point messaging with IBM MQ as a messaging provider.
An IBM MQ queue destination is used to configure the properties of a queue for the IBM MQ messaging provider. Connections to the queue are created using an associated IBM MQ queue connection factory or connection factory.
To view IBM MQ queue settings, use the administrative console to complete the following steps:
- 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
- IBM MQ Queue
Make any required changes to the Administration and IBM 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 the IBM MQ queue destination

When specifying IBM 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.

If IBM MQ functionality has been disabled at a scope that affects this IBM MQ messaging provider resource, then an informational message indicating that IBM MQ has been disabled appears. In a single server environment this informational message is only displayed when the server is restarted after IBM MQ functionality has been disabled. In a network deployment environment the informational message is displayed immediately.
A queue destination for use with the IBM MQ messaging provider has the following properties.
Scope
The scope assigned to the queue when it is created. The scope specifies the level to which this queue definition is visible to applications.
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.
The scope displayed is for information only, and cannot be changed on this panel. To browse or change this resource at a different scope, change the scope on IBM MQ queue destination collection panel, then click Apply, before clicking the link for the type of resource.
