kind of an odd question this.

As part of a decommisioning exercise I want to prevent a queue manager from being started (on Aix MQv5.3). The obvious answer is to find the script thats starting it - but thats easier said then done!

Is their a relatively safe way of disabling the queue manager from starting when anyone issues the strmqm command ? (but i do need to be able to reverse this easily incase I need to allow the queue manager to be started again).

The only reliable way I know to do this is to remark out its entries in the mqs.ini file.

... or rename its directory name in qmgrs, or rename its qm.ini file.
