| Is it a good idea to have more than one sender channels polling the same xmitq ? |

MQ Clustering does it all the time.

true, but those are cluster sender channels and the clustering mechanism is involved.
how would you trigger the second 'normal' sender channel to activate on a regular xmitq?

jainvik7 didn't ask about triggering the channels...
Just using two channels against the same xmitq.
If you're saying you think that, outside of clustering, this is not a good idea... I agree.

I just thought... technically it might work, but not too practical 
so I guess we are in agreement

This cannot be done, at least not at the same time, because each channel opens the channel MQOO_INPUT_EXCLUSIVE. Only one of the channels sharing the xmitq can run.

It is mainly used by admins in situations where you have multiple paths to the same destination. If the preferred path becomes unavailable you can stop the corresponding channel and start a channel that uses one of the alternate paths. Using the same xmitq allows to not worry about having to shift messages from the xmitq....
