WebSphere MQ resources for brokers

Each broker depends on a number of WebSphere® MQ resources: some are required, others are optional, and depend on your environment and requirements. Some of these resources are created for you, but others you must define for yourself.

WebSphere MQ resources created for you

When you create a broker, the following WebSphere MQ resources are created for you:

  • On distributed systems, the queue manager for the broker. Each broker must be associated with a dedicated queue manager. Specify a queue manager name when you create the broker. If this queue manager does not exist, it is created for you.
  • Fixed-name queues on the queue manager that hosts this broker. The broker uses these queues to send messages to provide information, status, and instructions about its internal operations

WebSphere MQ resources that you must create yourself

Depending on the setup of your broker, you might need to create some WebSphere MQ resources yourself. You might need some or all the following resources:

  • If you create a broker on z/OS®, you must create the queue manager. See Creating a broker on z/OS for more details.
  • Define listener connections on the broker queue manager. You must define one listener connection for every protocol that your applications use; for example, TCP/IP.

Create WebSphere MQ resources by using one of the following commands and utilities:

  • runmqsc
  • The PCF interface
  • WebSphere MQ Explorer
  • WebSphere Message Broker Explorer

For more information about creating resources, see the Intercommunication section of the WebSphere MQ Version 7 Information Center online.
