hi
i am using version 5.3 of ibm websphere mqseries.
i need to save the messages in the que and copy them into another machine with same configuration.
Some where i read that to take backup and to restore (save) them in another machine all you have to do is to copy two log files.
I did the same and was able get the desired results.
But that was 6 months back. Now i have to configure two more systems but have forgotten   thoes file names and their locations.
Can any one help me on that.
its quit urgent as i have to deliver these machines in a week.
Please
Please
Please help |

I wouldn't do that.
I would use something, like a free-for-trial Visual Editor for MQ, that will let you extract the messages from a queue into a file, and then replay them into a different queue.

Hi,
Do You still have this problem? I have written a C program for Win32 that redirects and copies messages and which may be what You are looking for. The program can use client connections to QM's on other op. systems.
Send me a note if You want more information.

Sorry to resurrect this, but I'm curious about the recommendation against the way the original poster indicated.
I've tried Visual Editor (and think it's cool), but am thinking that if this program can backup and restore messages like it does, then surely there must be some underlying commands included with MQ that will allow me to do the same...no?
In reading the IBM material, it appears as if this is possible, but I'm not seeing anything as straightforward as what appears in Visual Editor. |

It is wise to avoid messing about with a QMs logs directly, especially for someone who is as MQ-green as the poster proved himself to be...

No. ("surley", eh?  )
At least not on any distributed platforms; on z/OS you have CSQUTIL. (possibly this exists in MQ v6, donno)
Btw, there's a support pack MA01: WebSphere MQ - Q program, which I personaly favor. |

Hello,
I am trying MQ Visual browse. I am able to export the messages but I am not able to save them to a different queue through this utility.
As I said I am able to copy to clipboard and paste it to Textpad. Can you let me know how we can import them to different queue?

Do the following:
(1) Open source queue
(2) Select the messages
(3) Do File -> Backup Queue then give it a filename i.e. mymsg.veq
(4) Open the Target Queue
(5) Do File -> Restore Queue then select the file i.e. mymsg.veq
Done.

It is the nature of the beast; MQ Visual Browse CANNOT insert, delete or update a message. It can ONLY browse messages.
If you want to Backup and then restore messages, then you need to be using MQ Visual Edit.
