What is Clustering in WebSphere MQ Series?

What is Cluster? Ans: A cluster is a group of queue managers set up in such a way that the queue managers can communicate directly with one another over a single network, without the need for transmission queue, channel, and remote queue definitions.   Some important MQSC commands that work with cluster DISPLAY CLUSQMGR SUSPEND CLUSQMGR RESUME CLUSQMGR REFRESH CLUSTER RESET CLUSTER     What are the Advantages of clustering? Advantages: Reduced system administration Increased high availability Improved resource utilization Workload sharing What is the algorithm that is followed by MQ in clustering? Ans: WebSphere MQ uses a workload management algorithm that uses a round-robin routine to select an available queue manager to route a message to.   What is Cluster queue manager? A cluster Queue manager is a queue manager that is a member of a cluster. A queue manager can be a member of more than one cluster   What happe...

WebSphere MQ Admin Interview Questions

What is MQ and what does it do? Ans. MQ stands for MESSAGE QUEUEING. WebSphere MQ allows application programs to use message queuing to participate in message-driven processing. Application programs can communicate across different platforms by using the appropriate message queuing software products. What is Message driven process? Ans . When messages arrive on a queue, they can automatically start an application using triggering . If necessary, the applications can be stopped when the message (or messages) have been processed. What are advantages of the MQ? Ans. 1. Integration. 2. Asynchrony 3. Assured Delivery 4. Scalability. How does it support the Integration? Ans . Because the MQ is independent of the Operating System you use i.e. it may be Windows, Solaris,AIX.It is independent of the protocol (i.e. TCP/IP, LU6.2, SNA, NetBIOS, UDP).It is not required that both the sender and receiver should be running on the same platform

IBM WebSphere MQ 6.0.0 Admin Tutorials

WebSphere MQ Series 6.0.0 Tutorial MQ Series: - It is an IBM web sphere product which is evolved in 1990’s. MQ series does transportation from one point to other. It is an EAI tool (Middle ware) VERSIONS:-5.0, 5.1, 5.3, 6.0, 7.0(new version). The currently using version is 6.2 Note: - MQ series supports more than 35+ operating systems. It is platform Independent. For every OS we have different MQ series software’s. But the functionality of MQ series  Default path for installing MQ series is:- C: programfiles\BM\clipse\SDK30 C: programfiles\IBM\WebsphereMQ After installation it will create a group and user. Some middleware technologies are Tibco, SAP XI. MQ series deals with two things, they are OBJECTS, SERVICES. In OBJECTS we have QUEUES CHANNELS PROCESS AUTHENTICATION QUERY MANAGER. In SERVICES we have LISTENERS. Objects: - objects are used to handle the transactions with the help of services. QUEUE MANAGER maintains all the objects and servi...

WebSphere MQ Script Commands

-- SCRIPT COMMANDS:- After entering in to queue manager we can find script commands. Script commands are same for every queue manager. (These Commands should be used in CAPITAL LETTERS) · DEFINE :-To define/create MQ manager objects like queue, Channels, process, and listener. · ALTER :-to update or modify the existing objects · DISPLAY :-to view all the properties of a particular object or to Display all objects · DELETE :-to delete created objects · CLEAR :-to clear the message from the queue · END :-to come out of the queue manager · PING :-to check whether other side channel / queue manager is ready to accept our request. · START :- to start the particular channel or listener · STOP :-to stop particular channel or listener · REFRESH :-used to refresh the security every time after giving or executing, set mgr or command for queue manager or object · RESET :-used to reset channel,cluster,queue manager · RESOLVE :-to resolve the channel w...

WebSphere MQ Triggering Q&A

What is Triggering? Ans: Web Sphere MQ enables you to start an application automatically when certain conditions on a queue are met. For example, you might want to start an application when the number of messages on a queue reaches a specified number. This facility is called triggering How many ways of Triggering? EVERY: A trigger event occurs every time that a message arrives on the application queue. Use this type of trigger if you want a serving program to process only one message, then end. FIRST: A trigger event occurs only when the number of messages on the application queue changes from zero to one. Use this type of trigger if you want a serving program to start when the first message arrives on a queue, continue until there are no more messages to process, then end. DEPTH: A trigger event occurs only when the number of messages on the application queue reaches the value of the TriggerDepth attribute. What are the Trigger types available Explain? a. Application tr...
