Creating an IBM MQ object from a JMS object
You can create new IBM® MQ queues and topics based on your existing JMS queues and topics. The values of relevant properties of the JMS object are copied to the new IBM MQ object. In future, however, if you make a change to one of the objects, the changes are not reflected in the other object.
Before you begin
About this task
If the JMS object that you use to create an IBM MQ object specifies a queue manager name in its properties, you can only create the IBM MQ object on a queue manager with the same name. This means you might have to add a new queue manager with the name specified in the JMS object.
To create an IBM MQ object from an existing JMS object, complete the following steps.
Procedure
- In the Navigator view, expand the initial context that contains the JMS object (either a JMS queue or a JMS topic), then click the Destinations folder to list the objects in the Content view.
- In the Content view, right-click the object, then click Create
MQ Queue or Create MQ Topic as
appropriate. The New Queue or New Topic wizard opens as appropriate.
-
In the wizard, click Select, then select the queue manager on which you
want to create the new IBM MQ object.
The queue manager's name is displayed in the Queue Manager field of the wizard.
- Work through the wizard to define the new IBM MQ object, then click Finish.
