Tutorial 1: Sending a message to a local queue
A tutorial to set up a queue manager, create a queue, put a test message onto the queue, and verify the receipt of the message.
About this task
This tutorial shows you how to set up a queue manager QM_APPLE and a queue
Q1 on a local stand-alone installation that has no communication links with any
other installations of IBM® MQ. When the objects have
been defined, there are multiple tools that may be used to test the setup. The first task is to put
a test message. This task can be completing by using the IBM MQ Explorer, or the distributed platform amqsput
program. The second task is to verify that the message was added to the queue. This task can be
completed by using the IBM MQ Explorer, or the distributed
platform amqsget
program.
When you have completed Tutorial 1, you should have a basic understanding of how IBM MQ messaging works in a simple messaging topology that has a queue manager with local queues.
