If IBM MQ functionality has been disabled at a scope that affects this IBM MQ messaging provider resource, then an informational message indicating that IBM MQ has been disabled appears. In a single server environment this informational message is only displayed when the server is restarted after IBM MQ functionality has been disabled. In a network deployment environment the informational message is displayed immediately.
Scope
The scope assigned to the topic when it is created. The scope specifies the level to which this topic definition is visible to applications.
Resources such as messaging providers, namespace bindings, or shared libraries can be defined at multiple scopes, with resources defined at more specific scopes overriding duplicates that are defined at more general scopes.
The scope displayed is for information only, and cannot be changed on this panel. To browse or change this resource at a different scope, change the scope on the IBM MQ topic destination collection panel, then click Apply, before clicking the link for the type of resource.
