What is the difference between support pack and fix pack?. As far as I know a support pack is extra functions added on the existing MQ, where else a fix pack is a version, like 6.1 and the will be next 6.2 and so on to resolve MQ problems.

MQ explorer is based on eclipse and eclipse sdk is prerequiste for MQ installation...

support pack is what comes extra then the basic features...

Support Pack? -- you mean SupportPac, a trademark held by IBM, as listed at http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27007197

For MQ version 6, a Fix Pack is a non-zero version number at the lowest level, eg. 6.0.2.1, 6.0.2.2

Compare this to a Refresh Pack, which is a version number change at the 2nd lowest level, with a zero at the lowest level, eg. 6.0.1.0, 6.0.2.0
