Configure queue managers and objects

We can configure many of the attributes of queue managers and their objects from IBM MQ Explorer using the properties dialogs.


About this task

Attention: Security policies for AMS are not manageable by IBM MQ Explorer for IBM MQ for z/OSĀ®.

On the z/OS platform you must use CSQ0UTIL.

To configure a queue manager or object using the properties dialog, complete the following steps.


Procedure

  1. In the Navigator view, click the relevant folder to list its contents in the Content view. For example, if you want to configure a queue, click the Queues folder to list the queue manager's queues in the Content view.
  2. In the Content view, right-click the queue manager or object, then click Properties. The properties dialog for the queue manager or object opens.
  3. Edit the properties as required.
  4. To apply the changes without closing the dialog, click Apply, or to close the dialog and save your changes, click OK.


Results

We can see many of your changes immediately but some changes, for example, changing the default location of the queue manager's TLS key repository, do not take effect until we have stopped and restarted the queue manager.
