Each administered object has a run state. This can be running or stopped indicating whether the administered object is active or not.
When an administered object is stopped, it cannot be used, but its configuration parameters can be queried or updated.
If the MQ bridge queue references a bridge administered object that is stopped, it is unable to convey an MQe message onto the MQ network until the bridge, MQ queue manager proxy, and client connection objects are all started.
The run state of administered objects can be changed using the start and stop actions from the MQeMQBridgeAdminMsg, MQeMQQMgrProxyAdminMsg, MQeClientConnectionAdminMsg, orMQeListenerAdminMsg administration message classes.
