Before completing this task you must have created a queue manager
called
venus.queue.manager and a local queue called
ORANGE.QUEUE.
For instructions on how to do this see
Setting
up the installation.
To test the queue manager and queue, use the amqsput sample
program to put a message on the queue, and the amqsget sample
program to get the message back from the queue:
- Log on as a user in group mqm, if you are not
already.
- Change into the /usr/mqm/samp/bin directory, which contains
the sample programs.
- Put a message on the queue using the following command:
./amqsput ORANGE.QUEUE
The
following messages are displayed: Sample AMQSPUT0 start
target queue is ORANGE.QUEUE
- Type some message text, on one or more lines, followed by a blank
line. The following message is displayed:
Sample AMQSPUT0 end
Your
message is now on the queue and the command prompt is displayed again.
- To get the message from the queue, use the following command:
./amqsget ORANGE.QUEUE
The sample program starts, and your message is displayed. After
a pause, the sample ends and the command prompt is displayed again.
You have now successfully verified your local installation.
