You can configure an external high availability framework, such as IBM HACMP, to manage a messaging engine as if it were a resource in the external high availability framework's resource group.
To allow a messaging engine to be managed by an external high availability framework, you must configure a 'No operation' policy for the messaging engine. Once the correct policy has been configured, HAManager will only activate or deactivate a messaging engine when instructed to by the external high availability framework.
Alternatively, there is a WebSphere MQ SupportPac that enables a WebSphere MQ queue manager to connect with a WebSphere Application Server messaging engine in a highly available manner. See the related information.
