Cluster queue properties
When you view the cluster queues that belong to a queue manager in a cluster, you can double-click the cluster queue and view its properties in the Cluster Queue properties dialog. You cannot edit any of the properties in the Cluster Queue properties dialog.
The following tables list the properties that are displayed in the Cluster Queue properties dialog. These properties vary from the properties shown for the same queues in the Queue properties dialog (see Queue properties).
For each property, there is a brief description of what it means. The tables also give the equivalent MQSC parameter for the DISPLAY QCLUSTER command. For more information about MQSC commands, see Administration using MQSC commands in IBM Knowledge Center.
General page
The following table lists the properties on the General page of the Cluster Queue properties dialog.
Property | Meaning | MQSC parameter |
---|---|---|
Queue name | The name of the cluster queue. | |
Queue type | Unlike in the Queue properties dialog,
the Queue type property just shows that the queue
is a cluster queue. See the Cluster
page of the Cluster queue properties dialog for whether the
cluster queue is a local, remote, or alias queue. |
QTYPE |
Description | A description of the cluster queue. | DESCR |
Put messages | This shows whether queue managers can put messages on the cluster
queue. Allowed means that queue managers can put
messages on the cluster queue; Inhibited means that
queue managers cannot put messages on the cluster queue. |
PUT |
Default priority | The default priority of messages that are put on the cluster queue, where 9 is the highest priority. | DEFPRTY |
Default persistence | This shows whether messages that are put on this cluster queue
persist when the queue manager is stopped and restarted. Persistent means
that the messages persist; Not persistent means that
messages are lost when the queue manager is stopped and restarted. |
DEFPSIST |
Cluster page
The following table lists the properties on the Cluster page of the Cluster Queue properties dialog. The Cluster page shows the properties of the cluster queue that are relevant to the cluster.
Property | Meaning | MQSC parameter |
---|---|---|
Cluster name | The name of the cluster in which the cluster queue is shared. | CLUSTER |
Default bind type | The default message binding. | DEFBIND |
Cluster queue type | This is the type of queue that the cluster queue represents: Alias , Local , Queue
manager (the cluster queue represents a queue manager alias), Remote
queue definition . |
CLUSQT |
Cluster queue manager | The name of the queue manager that hosts the cluster queue. | CLUSQMGR |
QMID | The internally generated unique name of the queue manager that hosts the cluster queue. | QMID |
CLWL channel rank | The rank of the queue in the cluster for purposes of cluster workload distribution; 0 is the lowest rank. For more information, see Distributed queuing and clusters in IBM Knowledge Center. | CLWLRANK |
CLWL channel priority | The priority of the queue in the cluster for purposes of cluster workload distribution; 0 is the lowest priority. For more information, see Distributed queuing and clusters in IBM Knowledge Center. | CLWLPRTY |
Statistics page
The following table lists the properties on the Statistics page of the Cluster Queue properties dialog. The Statistics page shows the date and time on which the cluster queue was last altered.
Property | Meaning | MQSC parameter |
---|---|---|
Alteration date | This is the date on which the queue's properties were last altered. | ALTDATE |
Alteration time | This is the time at which the queue's properties were last altered. | ALTTIME |
