General usage tips

Most groups of WebSphere MQ commands, including those associated with queue managers, queues, channels, namelists, process definitions, and authentication information objects can be accessed using the relevant WRK* command.

The principal command in the set is WRKMQM. This command allows you, for example, to display a list of all the queue managers on the system, together with status information. Alternatively, we can process all queue-manager specific commands using various options against each entry.

From the WRKMQM command we can select specific areas of each queue manager, for example, working with channels or queues, and from there select individual objects.
