IBM MQ Commands

July 27, 2007 at 2:09 am | Posted in MQ, Programming, Technology | 5 Comments 

Some simple and useful IBM MQ Commands I found useful for debugging or testing the channels and queues. 

Some MQ Commands

Use ‘mqm' user

At : /usr/mqm/bin

Connect to Queue Manager

runmqsc <queue_manager_name>

Display Channel info

dis channel(<part_of_channel_name>*)

Display Channel full info

dis chs(<part_of_channel_name>*) all

Check channel is alive

ping channel(<channel_name>) start channel(<channel_name>)

Display Queue Alias Info

dis qa(<part_of_queue_alias_name>*) dis qa(<queue_alias_name>) all

Display Remote Queue Info

dis qr(<remote_queue_name>) all

Display Local Queue Info

dis ql(<part_of_queue_name>*) curdepth

Display Channel messages info including last message date and time

dis chs(<part_of_queue_name>*) msgs lstmsgda lstmsgti

Zerolize Counter (curdepth) in queue

runmqsc <queue_manager_name> stop CHANNEL(<channel_name>) start CHANNEL(<channel_name>)

It should then show zero messages :

dis chs(<channel_name>*) msgs lstmsgda lstmsgti

Perform a test put message

cd /usr/mqm/samp/bin./amqsput <queue_name><queue_manager_name> Test message <Enter>

Websphere MQ Basics

1. Here is a list of key terms about message queuing .
   
   

   Term	Description
   Queue managers	The queue manager is responsible for maintaining the queues it owns, and for storing all the messages it receives onto the appropriate queues.
   Messages	A message is a string of bytes that is meaningful to the applications that use it. Messages are used to transfer information from one application program to another. The applications can be running on the same or on different computers.
   Local queues	A local queue is a data structure used to store messages. The queue can be a normal queue or a transmission queue. A normal queue holds messages that are to be read by an application that is reading the message directly from the queue manager. A transmission queue holds messages that are in transit to another queue manager.
   Remote queues	A remote queue is used to address a message to another queue manager.
   Channels	Channels are use to send and receive message between queue managers.
   Listeners	Listeners are processes that accept network requests from other queue managers, or client applications, and start associated channels.

   
   
   Creating a queue manager called QM1
   
   
   1.      Create a queue manager with the name QM1 by typing the following command:
   crtmqm QM1
   When the system creates the queue manager, you see the following output:
   C:\IBM\WebSphereMQ\bin>crtmqm QM1
   WebSphere MQ queue manager created.
   Directory 'C:\IBM\WebSphereMQ\qmgrs\QM1' created.
   The queue manager is associated with installation 'Installation1'.
   Creating or replacing default objects for queue manager 'QM1'.
   Default objects statistics : 77 created. 0 replaced. 0 failed.
   Completing setup.
   Setup completed.
   
   
   The queue manager is stopped. You must start the queue manager to administer it, and read and write messages from its queues.
   2.      Start the queue manager by entering the following command:
   strmqm QM1
   When the queue manager successfully starts, you see the following output:
   
   
   C:\IBM\WebSphereMQ\bin>strmqm QM1
   WebSphere MQ queue manager 'QM1' starting.
   The queue manager is associated with installation 'Installation1'.
   5 log records accessed on queue manager 'QM1' during the log replay phase.
   Log replay for queue manager 'QM1' complete.
   Transaction manager state recovered for queue manager 'QM1'.
   WebSphere MQ queue manager 'QM1' started using V7.5.0.0.
   
   
   With the queue manager started, you can now create the queues.
   
   
   create a queue called LQ1
   
   
   A queue is a WebSphere MQ queue manager object. There are three ways to create WebSphere MQ objects:
   
   
   ·        Command-line.
   ·        WebSphere MQ Explorer.
   ·        Using a programmable interface.
   
   
   1.      Start the scripting tool by typing the following command.
   runmqsc QM1
   
   
   When the scripting tool starts, you see:
   C:\IBM\WebSphereMQ\bin>runmqsc QM1
   5724-H72 (C) Copyright IBM Corp. 1994, 2011.  ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
   Starting MQSC for queue manager QM1.
   The tool is ready to accept MQSC commands.
   2.      Create a local queue called LQ1 by typing the following MQSC command:
   define qlocal(LQ1)
   When the queue is created, you see the following output:
   define qlocal(LQ1)
        2 : define qlocal(LQ1)
   AMQ8006: WebSphere MQ queue created.
   
   
   3.      Stop the scripting tool by typing the following MQSC command:
   end
   When the scripting tool ends, you see the following output:
   One MQSC command read.
   No commands have a syntax error.
   All valid MQSC commands were processed.
   
   
   C:\>
   
   
   Displaying Queue Manager Status
   
   
   To check the queue manager is running or not , type the following command: dspmq
   
   
    C:\IBM\WebSphereMQ\bin>dspmq
   QMNAME(QM1)   STATUS(Running)
   
   
   Putting a message to the Queue LQ1
   
   
   1.      Use the amqsput sample application to put a message to queue LQ1 by typing: amqsput LQ1 QM1
   
   
   When the sample application starts, you see:
   C:\>amqsput LQ1 QM1
   Sample AMQSPUT0 start
   target queue is LQ1
   Type Hello World and press Enter. You placed a message that contains the text “Hello World” on the queue LQ1 managed by the queue manager called QM1. To end amqsput, press Enter.
   
   
   You see the following output:
   C:\>amqsput LQ1 QM1
   Sample AMQSPUT0 start
   target queue is LQ1
   Hello World
   
   
   Sample AMQSPUT0 end
   
   
   Getting messages from the Queue LQ1
   Use the amqsget sample application to read a message on the queue LQ1 by typing: amqsget LQ1 QM1
   
   
   When the sample application starts, you see:
   
   
   C:\>amqsget LQ1 QM1
   Sample AMQSGET0 start
   message <Hello World>
   no more messages
   Sample AMQSGET0  end
   
   
   The amqsget application ends 30 seconds after reading the message.
