Enumerating QueueManagers and Queues 1

[Hexonx]

Anyone know how to enumerate all QueueManagers on the local machine, and the Queues each manager owns? I'm writing a test harness to generate messages and want to be able to select the QM and Q to send to.

TIA

Havent done this myself, but here are a few suggstions.

if you are using MQ client, you could use client channel table.

if you are using MQ server, then here are some of the options.
1) In your app, issue a system command and call MQ command DSPMQ which displays a list of queue managers on the local machine. Copy this into either a local buffer or a file and parse the qm name from it.
2) Similarly call saveqmgr from your system command and repeat the same process as in step 1 to get all the local queues.

Good luck.

Do you have any sample code for how to connect
to other queue managers from MQ Server?

Thanks

What language? I have some VB.NET programs that do it but really it isn't a big deal in any language.

What you need is to do in VB.NET is set the MQ Environment variables. These are:

MQEnvironment.Hostname
MQEnvironment.Channel

If you are on a Server you can find out what Queue Managers are on the server by issuing the DSPMQ command.

Hope this helps
