Solaris : check qm.ini file
Win: check the qmgr property tab. It is stored in the registry....

Hello fjb_saper,
I guess you got me wrong. I meant the properties of objects like Queue, Channel etc. I dont know how they are stored when we create them. I can find /var/mqm/qmgrs/QM!QM/queues/QL!NAME in the folder structure but not anything of a property file.
I wanted to know if the properties we define while creating a Queue or a Channel are stored in a particular place or not, and if yes where and how? Thank you for your reply. 
Regards,
Bijish |

But don't try and read any properties from any of these places, and especially don't try and CHANGE the properties in these places.
Use RUNMQSC for everything you can, and edit mqs.ini and qm.ini for everything else.
And understand that there are some things that can only be set when the qm is created - like log file page size - so not everything is changeable.

Are you looking for a way to backup queue and channel definitions? Or change a large number of object attributes quickly? Create largely identical queue managers? Or just trying to understand the product (a worthy endeavor, too!)?
Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, someone may be able to offer more advice.

Hi all,
Thank you all for your response. I dont mean to change any of the properties by changing the property files. Just wanted to know how does it work and know more about how the product work.
Warm Regards

Knowing where these properties are stored is pretty much never going to be any use.
Knowing how to access these properties, and when to change them and how to properly change them is going to actually be useful - probably fairly often.

I would love to know all you specified. But being a beginner I thought its worth starting from the bottom. I would be greatful if you could guide me to find out how can I achieve your suggestions. Links and documents would be help ful. Thank you so much

You should start the same place everyone else starts. The documentation.
The most valuable skill I have for working with MQ is knowing how to search for my own links. The second is knowing how to read the documentation carefully.
Most of the manuals start off with sections that are about general concepts of MQ, and get more technical as you read further into them. One approach to learning MQ is to read the early parts of several manuals (the usual recommended set is App. Prog. Guide, System Admin, and Intercommunictions), and then try stuff, and then go back to the manuals for specific information.
