Usage

Administration Console

\tools\Sun\MessageQueue\mq\bin\imqadmin

JNDI

These commands use a File-system Store to create a connection factory and a queue:

\tools\Sun\MessageQueue\mq\bin\imqobjmgr add -j java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory -j java.naming.provider.url=file:/temp/jndi -l HelloConnectionFactory -t cf
\tools\Sun\MessageQueue\mq\bin\imqobjmgr add -j java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory -j java.naming.provider.url=file:/temp/jndi -l HelloQueue -t q

Note:

• The directory, /temp/jndi/ must have been created before running the commands.

• To list the objects which have been added:

  \tools\Sun\MessageQueue\mq\bin\imqobjmgr list -j java.naming.factory.initial=com.sun.jndi.fscontext.RefFSContextFactory -j java.naming.provider.url=file:/temp/jndi
