A WebSphere® MQ server represents a WebSphere MQ queue manager or (for WebSphere MQ for z/OS®) queue-sharing group. To create a WebSphere MQ server definition, you use the administrative console to define the server connection and quality of service properties.
Decide which method to use to configure these resources. You can create a new WebSphere MQ server definition by using the administrative console as described in this task, or by using the createSIBWMQServer command.
A WebSphere MQ server definition defines the connection to an underlying WebSphere MQ queue manager or queue-sharing group and the associated queues.
When you subsequently add the server as a member of a service integration bus, you can optionally override the server connection settings with the bus connection settings. This means that you can create a WebSphere MQ server definition that is specific to a bus, yet reusable in a multiple bus topology.
