IBM MQ - Create remote queue

Updated:   |  IBM MQ articles

Remote queues are used so that you can create a connection between a queue on machine 1 (the sender) and machine 2 (the receiver). Before setting up remote queue, you will need to create a queue manager on both machine 1 and machine 2, and a local transmission queue on machine 1 (the sender) should already have been created. 


If using MQ Explorer

On machine 1 (the sender), create a remote queue definition.

  1. In the left panel of MQ Explorer, expand Queue Managers > Machine 1 (the sender) Queue Manager.
  2. Right-click on the Queues folder and select New Remote Queue Definition.
  3. In the Name field, give your remote queue definition a name, such as Q01, and select Next.
  4. In the Remote queue manager field, enter the name of the queue manager on machine 2 (the receiver).
  5. In the Transmission queue field, enter the name of the queue manager on machine 2 (the receiver).
  6. Select Finish.

The remote queue definition should now be displayed.

 

On machine 2 (the receiver), create a remote queue.

  1. TBD

In this example, the remote queue is now displayed.

 


If using Linux command line

The steps on how to setup machine 1 are TBD.

On machine 2 (the receiver), switch to the mqm user.

su - mqm

 

Create a remote queue. In this example, the remote queue is named QUEUE02, on queue manager MANAGER02.

echo "define qremote (Q01) rname (Q01) rqmname(MANAGER02) xmitq (MANAGER02)" | runmqsc MANAGER01
