Hi,
I've created two queue managers. To create a cluster, I've used
ALTER QMGR REPOS(CLUSTER1) for the two queue managers.
I've defined the sender and receiver channels.
I'm not getting any errors but the cluster is not getting created.
And,how do i specify the listener port for each queue manager?
(The CONNAME attribute does not accept machine_name(port) as a valid value.)
To add another queue manager to the cluster, is it enough to create sender and receiver channels to and from the repository?
Thanks. |

You might want to review the "Creating a cluster" section in the Clustering manual. Or indeed read it.
However
1) You do mean you've created cluster sender and receiver channels don't you?
2) How are you determining the cluster is not being created? (command line, explorer, what?)
3) CONNAME does so accept machine name(port) as a valid value. Or it does on my version
4) To add a queue manager to the cluster - follow the instructions in the Clustering manual in the section marked "Adding a queue manager to a cluster"!

CONNAME should look like myhostname(1414) within single quotes
For example
| Quote: |
| define chl(abcd) chltype(sdr) trptype(tcp) conname('myhostname(1414)') |

The CONNAME accepts the port no within single quotes. Thanks.
And yes, I've created cluster sender and receiver channels.
The explorer doesn't show the cluster.
And moreover, when I try to create a cluster queue(in the explorer), it says that the queue manager is not a part of the cluster(and the queue is not shared because of this). |

Did you specify the cluster name (CLUSTER1) on the clster sdr/rcvr channels?

Don't mix and match things
Don't use runmqsc commands and expect all of those to show up in MQExplorer.
Either use all mqsc commands or se MQExplorer all the way |

Yes, I've specified the cluster name in the cluster sender and receiver channels
I've been using the explorer till now. But now I'm working on a unix machine and am quite unsure of the commands.SO was just checking up with the explorer if I'm doing things correctly. |

I've created 2 queue managers, added them to a cluster(??) and created cluster sender and receiver channels.
Then I tried adding another queue manager to the cluster ie by defining the cluster sender and receive channels.
And created cluster queues on the two repositories.
One more question
Do i have to start the listeners for channels manually? |

On Unix, listeners are started with the command 'runmqlsr'. This has to be issued manually - the queue manager startup process doesn't issue this command.

Unless, of course, you're using MQ V6, in which case a properly defined "listener" object can automatically start with the qmgr.

Actually, for clusters, I'd suggest doing everything in runmqsc. MQExploder, prior to v6 (where I hope it's changed), was always kinda "brain dead" as far as clusters went.

Hi,
I've created a cluster with two repository queue managers,and then added another queue manager. I've created remote queue definitions
(alias queue manager) on the two repositories and shared them in the cluster. But they do not show up in the other queue managers.
Also, the sender and receiver channels are not starting up.
Could someone help me out here. |

is "the other queuemanager" a full repository? if not, the cluster queues will only show up if the "other queuemanager" has tried to use them. a partial repository will not know everything that exists in the cluster, it will know a cluster object only when he tries to use it and therefore gets the proper information from the repository.
what is the state of your channels? are they inactive? retry? any entries in the anmqerr01.log? did you make sure your connection names are correct? are all network / firewallsettings fine? please give more details!!!
