Implementing the solution

Implementing the solution

Implement the solution to the scenario. Create two IBM MQ queue managers on two separate hosts, the source queue manager to send messages, and the target queue manager to receive messages.

Before you begin
The starting point for this scenario is an existing, verified IBM MQ installation. For instructions to install IBM MQ, follow the steps in Install an IBM MQ server on Windows.

Create two queue managers by using the command-line interface, define the required listeners, queues, and channels. The delivered logical topology shows the functions added by implementing the solution.

Creating the queue manager
Create an IBM MQ queue manager to send messages to the target queue manager.
Creating the queues
Create IBM MQ queues that are managed by the IBM MQ queue manager.
Creating the sender channel
Create the sender channel on the source queue manager, the channel is used to connect to the target queue manager.
Creating the distributed queue manager topology
Point-to-point messaging is the simplest form of messaging in IBM MQ. In point-to-point messaging, the sending application must know certain information about the receiving application before messages can be sent. The sending application will require a way to address the remote queue. Use point-to-point messaging to send a message to a second queue manager with a sample application.
Verifying the solution
Verify that the source queue manager can put a message onto the remote queue. Verify that the target queue manager can get the message from the queue.
