Specifying a different cluster information source for IBM MQ Explorer
We can change the full repository queue manager from which IBM MQ Explorer obtains information about which queue managers belong to a cluster.
About this task
For each cluster, IBM MQ Explorer obtains information from one of the cluster's full repository queue managers about which queue managers belong to the cluster. We can change the IBM MQ Explorer information source by specifying a different full repository queue manager that belongs to the same cluster.
To specify a different full repository queue manager, complete the following steps.
Procedure
- In the Navigator view, click the cluster. The Content view displays the name of the full repository queue manager that is currently the information source.
- In the Content view, click Select... A dialog opens.
- From the list, select a full repository queue manager, then click Finish.
Results
The Content view now displays the name of the queue manager that you selected. IBM MQ Explorer updates its information about the cluster from the full repository queue manager specified.
