Configuring an MQ host

To simulate a partner, if you are not working with an existing host, complete the following steps on the host:
  1. Create the queue manager by typing the following at the command prompt:
    Crtmqm -q -d HOST.TO.SERVER -u SYSTEM.DEAD.LETTER.QUEUE QMH
  2. Start the queue manager by typing the following at the command prompt:
    strmqm QMH
  3. Create all required MQ objects for QMH:
    Runmqsc<host.tst>host.out

    The file host.tst must contain the following information:

    To receive messages from the server:
    DEFINE QLOCAL('QH1') REPLACE + 
    DESCR('Messages from the server')
    
    DEFINE CHANNEL(SERVER.TO.HOST) + 
    CHLTYPE(rcvr) REPLACE + 
    TRPTYPE(tcp) + 
    DESCR('Receiver channel from server to host')
    To send messages to the server:
    DEFINE QREMOTE('QH2') REPLACE + 
    RNAME('QS2') + 
    RQMNAME(QMS) + 
    XMITQ(HOST.TO.SERVER) + 
    DESCR('Messages for the server')
    
    DEFINE QLOCAL(HOST.TO.SERVER) REPLACE + 
    USAGE(xmitq) + 
    DESCR('Xmit queue to server')
    
    DEFINE CHANNEL(HOST.TO.SERVER) + 
    CHLTYPE(svr) REPLACE + 
    TRPTYPE(tcp) + 
    XMITQ(HOST.TO.SERVER) + 
    DESCR('Sender channel from host to server')
