Creating WebSphere MQ Objects

Below are some commands for creating mq objects.
Use the DEFINE QLOCAL to create a local queue
DEFINE QLOCAL ('myqueue') +
       DESCR('my test queue') +
       PUT(ENABLED) +
       DEFPRTY(0) +
       DEFPSIST(YES) +
       DEFPRESP(SYNC) +
       SCOPE(QMGR) +
       GET(ENABLED) +
       PROPCTL(COMPAT) +
       DEFREADA(NO) +
       MAXDEPTH(999999999) +
       CLUSTER(' ') +
       CLUSNL(' ') +
       DEFBIND(OPEN) +
       CLWLRANK(0) +
       CLWLPRTY(0) +
       CUSTOM('capexpry(25920000)') +
       REPLACE

Use the DEFINE QALIAS to create an alias queue
DEFINE QALIAS ('myaliasq') +
DESCR('My alias queue') +
PUT(ENABLED) +
  DEFPSIST(YES) +
SCOPE(QMGR) +
        GET(ENABLED) +
TARGET ('REMOTE QUEUE')

Use the DEFINE QREMOTE to create a remote queue
DEFINE QREMOTE (REMOTE QUEUE) +
DESCR ('Remote Queue') +
RNAME (REMOTE QUEUE) +
RQMNAME (QMGR1) +
XMITQ (XMIT1)

You can save the commands in a text file.
Use the runmqsc command to issue MQSC commands to a queue manager.

runmqsc QMGR  <  C:\Temp\MQ_Objects.txt > C:\Temp\result.txt

The above command will invoke the MQSC commands in the text file against the QMGR queue manager. The result is sent to result.txt.

From WebSphere MQ veriosn 8.0.0.4, a new attribute CAPEXPRY has been introduced that can be used to alleviate problems of messages building up and hitting maximum depth limits. Setting this attribute on a destination means that when a message is put to that destination, the expiry time of the message will be limited to the value set in CAPEXPRY.
