Hi Guys,
I have a single QMgr which is part of a cluster and it is a partial repository running on Windows box.
I have MQExplorer on the same windows box where the MQServer(QMgr) is running.
I can see the QMgr in the MQExplorer but not sure how to suspend/ resume via MQExplorer. Any tips?.
Thanks. |

| Any operations on MQ Cluster queue managers need to be performed in MQ Explorer on the instance of the queue manager in the Queue Manager Clusters folder, rather than in the Queue Managers folder. |

I know.
I did everything thru command prompt like defining the cluster sender/ receiver channels etc. Now it should show up in the Cluster QMgrs folder under the clustername, right?. I see the clustername but not the QMgrs under the clustername. If I try to add a cluster QMgr to that cluster in the MQExplorer, its asking for the conname and when I provide the FRs hostname(port#), it says the connection(channel) already exists as it is already defined thru command prompt. Any further thoughts?.
Thanks. |

If I have a Queue Manager under the "Queue Manager Clusters" folder in MQ Explorere, and I right-click on it, I can choose to suspend it or resume it from the cluster.
Depening on whether I am connected to it or not, these options may or may not be enabled.
If you do not see the qmgr under the Queue Manager Clusters folder, then you likely did not configure the queue manager into the cluster correctly, or started the necessary channels the first time or allowed the full repository to complete it's registration, or otherwise not completed adding the queue manager to the cluster.
If you start a new thread and show exactly the steps you performed and show the results, and the section of the documentation that you followed to perform those steps, then you may get more assistance.
it is typically very difficult to create a queue manager cluster with only one queue manager in it. It's hard to know where to define the CLUSSDR to the FR... |

I have more than 1 Queue manager in the cluster. Infact we have around 30 QMgrs in the same cluster. The cluster queue managers are on different boxes installed on SunOS, AIX, Windows etc.
The one in question is defined on a Windows box. On this box, we do have MQExplorer. Sometime back when we had issues with the QMgr, we needed to rebuild it from scratch from the backup(saveqmgr). Now when I want to administer via MQExplorer, I dont see the QMgr defined on that box under Cluster folder.
You are right. When the QMgr is there under Cluster QMgrs folder, I can suspend/ resume.
Question:
How to add this QMgr to the MQExplorer..Cluster QMgrs folder?.
Thanks. |

If you rebuilt the queue manager without removing it from the cluster first then it won't be. Even if the queue manager has the same name, it's not the same queue manager as the one that was in the cluster.
Look in the Clusters manual for how to fix your cluster and re-add this queue manager.

| Are you using the MS MQ Explorer or the Eclipse one ... in the old days one was advised not to use the MS version to issue cluster-related commands, but to always use runmqsc. |

Answer :p
You do not need to add them manually.. they get added on their own, when a cluster is established.
May be you can cross check the channels and cluster being up....
or else,, try adding remote queue managers in explorer or else may be you can go to a box holding FR and see if that reflects the QM present..

I tried to create a new Queue Manager Cluster in MQ Explorer, which worked all fine. However. I now want to remove all of the Cluster artefacts and cannot remove my <clustername>-folder placed directly under the Queue Manager Cluster-folder after removing my channels etc... All I can do is to "Add Queue Manager To Cluster" or run Tests, when I right click on it.
I'm using the latest ms0t_explorer7001 |
