Hi
Are there any options for changing the location where MQ installs
certain files. I'm thinking specifically of the library files placed
under /usr/lib ?
thanks in advance |

I thought the mq stuff under /usr/lib was all symlinks

Files are always installed to /opt/mqm. Symlinks are placed in /usr/lib and /usr/include. Queue manager data defaults to /var/mqm but this can be configured per-queue-manager. |

from what I've found in the documentation MQ installs soft links, message catologs and man pages to /usr.
Does anyone know why this is done ?
I would expect /usr to be an O/S only file system. |

You cannot change where MQ is installed
If you want you can create a sym link |

Why? "usr" is short for "user". /usr is the "user" part of the file system.
"/opt" is the "optional" part of the file system, "/var" is the "variable" part.
Putting symlinks into "/lib" instead of "/usr/lib" would be putting stuff into an O/S only file system. |
