Setting up a command environment
After you have installed the product on one of the distributed systems, you must initialize the environment before you can use a runtime component or command.
Also complete this task if you have migrated to WebSphere® Message Broker Version 8.0 from an earlier version. A profile is provided to help you set up the environment.
If appropriate, you can extend the initialization performed by this profile; for example, for user databases, or for other products that you want to use within the broker.
Ensure that you use this environment each time you run an administrative command, or start a broker.
