Types of queue: The queue manager supports the following types of queue definition:
Applications connected to the local queue manager can place messages on and remove messages from queues of this type. The value of the QType queue attribute is QTLOC.
Applications connected to any queue manager in the queue-sharing group can place messages on and remove messages from queues of this type. Such queues are effectively the same as local queues. The value of the QType queue attribute is QTLOC.
Applications connected to the local queue manager can place messages on queues of this type, regardless of the location of the queue. If an instance of the queue exists on the local queue manager, the queue behaves in the same way as a local queue, and applications connected to the local queue manager can remove messages from the queue. The value of the QType queue attribute is QTCLUS.
Applications connected to the local queue manager can place messages on and remove messages from alias queues - the messages are actually placed on and removed from the local queue to which the alias resolves. The value of the QType queue attribute is QTALS.
Applications connected to the local queue manager can place messages on remote queues - the messages are actually placed on the the local transmission queue used to route messages to the remote queue manager. Applications cannot remove messages from remote queues. The value of the QType queue attribute is QTREM.
A remote queue definition can also be used for:
In this case the name of the definition is the name of a reply-to queue. For more information, see the WebSphere MQ Intercommunication book.
In this case the name of the definition is an alias for a queue manager, and not the name of a queue. For more information, see the WebSphere MQ Intercommunication book.
