Task 17: Tailor your system parameter module

 

• Repeat this task for each WebSphere MQ queue manager, as required.

• You need to perform this task when migrating from a previous version. For details, see Migrating from a previous version.

The WebSphere MQ system parameter module controls the logging, archiving, tracing, and connection environments that WebSphere MQ uses in its operation. The system parameter module has three macros as follows:

Macro name	Purpose
CSQ6SYSP	Specifies the connection and tracing parameters, see topic Using CSQ6SYSP
CSQ6LOGP	Controls log initialization, see topic Using CSQ6LOGP
CSQ6ARVP	Controls archive initialization, see topic Using CSQ6ARVP

WebSphere MQ supplies a default system parameter module, CSQZPARM, which is invoked automatically if you issue the START QMGR command (without a PARM parameter) to start an instance of WebSphere MQ. CSQZPARM is in the APF-authorized library thlqual.SCSQAUTH also supplied with WebSphere MQ. The values of these parameters are displayed as a series of messages when you start WebSphere MQ.

See the WebSphere MQ Script (MQSC) Command Reference manual for more information about the START QMGR command and the WebSphere MQ for z/OS System Administration Guide for more information about how this command is used.
