runmqsc will allow you to issue a CLEAR QUEUE command.

But this command will fail if there is an application that has the queue open.

In that case, you would need something like the Q utility (a support pack) which will let you read each message from the queue into an empty file.

How about running amqsget ( sample c program) from the command line.
the format is :
amqsget <queue name> <queue manager name>

This works only if the messages are less than 100 bytes long. You'd have to modify and recompile amqsget to truncate longer messages.

You can use the utility MQJExplorer (http://www.kolban.com/mqjexplorer/download.htm) this has some features like taking backup and replaying them.
