Create and configure queue managers and objects
We can create, configure, and delete queue managers and objects in IBM MQ Explorer by using the Navigator view and Content view.
About this task
All of the queue managers and objects that we can administer in IBM MQ Explorer are contained in folders in the Navigator view. For example, the Queue Managers folder contains all of the queue managers that we can administer in IBM MQ Explorer; the Channels folder contains all of a queue manager's channels. For most folders, when you right-click the folder, a menu is displayed so that we can perform tasks such as creating a new object.
When you click a folder in the Navigator view, the contents of the folder are displayed in the Content view. For example, when you click the Queues folder, the queue manager's queues are displayed in the Content view. You can then right-click an object in the Content view to perform tasks such as opening the object's properties dialog, and deleting the object.
