Create a JMS object and an IBM MQ object simultaneously
When creating a new JMS object, we can optionally create a corresponding IBM MQ object of the same type.
Before starting
- We must have an IBM MQ queue manager. If one does not exist, we can create one as described in: Create and configure queue managers and objects
- We must have a JMS initial context. If one does not exist, we can create one as described in: Add the initial context that will contain the JMS topic
- We must be connected to the JMS initial context as described in: Connect to the initial context
About this task
With the object creation wizards in IBM MQ Explorer, we can create an IBM MQ object and a JMS object simultaneously. You begin by launching we required object wizard, for example; an IBM MQ queue. Then you select the option to launch another wizard, for example; a JMS queue, once the object has been created. The second object wizard must be of the same object type, and the properties of one are mapped to the other.

About this task
When creating a new JMS queue in IBM MQ Explorer, we can choose to launch the IBM MQ New Local Queue wizard to create a IBM MQ queue immediately after the New JMS Destination wizard has finished. The New Local Queue wizard now contains the details you entered when creating the JMS queue.To create a new JMS queue and IBM MQ queue simultaneously in IBM MQ Explorer:

- Click New > Destination to open the New Destination wizard.
- Type a name for the queue, then select Queue in the Type field.
- Select Start wizard to create a matching MQ Queue. Continue through the wizard to create your queue.
