Introduction

The route that a message takes through an MQe network can depend upon many resources (queues, connection definitions, listeners and so on). These need to be correctly set up, often in pairs whose settings need to be complementary. Failure to set up the correct resources, or setting certain of their values incorrectly can result in failure to deliver messages. Since the task of setting up a network that correctly routes messages can initially appear complex, this topic describes the theory underlying message resolution.

A common source of confusion with MQe is the differentiation between a local queue that exists on a remote machine (or queue manager), and a local definition of that queue on the remote machine. Both of these entities are commonly referred to as 'remote queue's. In order to clarify these, the term 'remote queue reference' is used to describe a local definition of a queue that resides on another (remote) machine (or queue manager).
