FYI,
MQControl Express will run on Windows NT/2000, XP Professional.
It requires MQSeries Client for Windows NT and 2000 5.x
installation on the system where MQControl Express is installed.
MQSeries Client for Windows can be downloaded directly from IBM:

I hope that helps.
Regards. |

I think Roger was saying that he wasn't able to download from the ftp site until he turned on passive ftp. Some ftp clients will automatically attempt to use passive transfers if regular ftp fails, but most don't. Some folks probably don't know the distinction between passive and regular ftp as well, so it would probably be best to allow regular ftp transfers in the future...

Well, the download seems to be working now. However, I got a message when I started downloading that this version of MQControl Express is limited to 2 MQ servers and 1 user, so it doesn't look like it's really much more than a demo.
Oh well, it's free, I can hardly complain....
I'll leave that to Roger  |

I installed MqControl Express but it seems to work only to manage a Local Qmanager, I tried to configure a remote Qmanager (located on a Linux Box) but it didn't work , not even an error message was displayed by the MQControl Express application.
Does somebody have successfully configured a remote QManager in MqControl Express ?
Thanks in advance |

Hi, to monitor remote queue managers:
1) Make sure channel listener is running for the target queue manager.
2) Make sure MQSeries Command Server is running for the target queue manager (strmqcsv qm_name).
3) Make sure that MQControl Express queue manager connection name, port is configured.( Example: linux(1415)). Also linux must be in a DNS or resolved through a hosts file, otherwise use IP address.
This should work. |

thanks for your response :
the command server is running, and the hostname is set by ip address,
so i don't need dns, and the port is the default 1414, i put the configuration like this : 130.1.1.110 (1414)
How do I know if my channel listener is running for the target queue manager ?
thanks in advance |

To start channel listener run:
runmqlsr -t tcp -p 1414 -m qm_name, where qm_name is the name of the queue manager, 1414 is the port number for the channel listener.
Also you can configure channel listener to run within INET daemon.
Refer to MQSeries books for more details, cuase the procedure involves modifying INET daemon config files.

I downloaded MQContrl Express. I had a problem, I admit I don't like reading manuals, later I found the description in the manual related to MCA user ID. It looks good. One of the queue managers is on my machine. Do I require MQSeries Server on my machine?
I suggest to add a ping the MQ port to detect whether the Listener is running. When the qmgr is down i got 2059. |

No, you do not need to have MQSeries on your machine, MQControl Express runs as an MQSeries client. It does not require any contact admin software on the server machine but because of this is reliant on the qmgr, listener, command server being up and the mcauser being OK. The alternative is to use MQControl which has an agent on the server and so can start all those. Contact Admin can monitor a listener port. I agree though that adding a ping shouldn't be too hard and would be worthwhile.

contact admin has posted an updated version of MQControl Express that addresses several installation and run-time problems and other issues discovered by some users that downloaded the product. One of the important once is the removal of 30-day limitation (mistake on our side)
This update is based largely on user feedback.
Again, same requirements (MQSeries server is not required, only MQSeries Client).
Give it a try. |
