Hi all,
Please correct me / excuse me if i am wrong.
we have a websphere server which is running on linux and i am trying automate every thing which is related to this. We have MQ runnig along with this. i need to get the state of MQ queue from the log file. Is it possible me to get the information anywhere from the Logs or i need to do some thing else, Please let me know the results.

What "state"? Queues don't have states per se. So you mean "state" in the sense of "working well"?
You can monitor the logs for queue manager status as well as DISPLAY commands (or their PCF equivalent). Things like queue depth (a good indicator of happiness if your design is right) again requires a DISPLAY command.

Consider some training.

If I said the log directory would you believe me? Note that there are 2 kinds of logging within WMQ: one is the queue manager log & is concerned with error reporting (rather than status); the other is the message logging and is not intended to be readable by non-IBM software.

There's no such thing as "the status" as I alluded to in my previous post. The DISPLAY commands are issued as normal via runmqsc or as PCF. If you don't know that, gdo some reading / training before attempting your task or you'll get yourself in a tangle.
I also commend to your attention the Monitoring MQ manual which contains a lot of useful information for you. Links at the top of this page.
Alternatively forget reinventing the wheel & buy one of the commercial monitoring products which does this out of the box.

The bin directory contains all the executables. These are referred to by symbolic links from /usr/bin, so there is no need to put /opt/mqm/bin in your path.
I suggest you look at the 'dspmq' command in the WebSphere MQ System Administration Guide.

Way too much pain.
Depending on the bang for the buck I'd try and use some MQ Monitoring software. Some is free, some you have to pay for. But don't reinvent the wheel...
