I’m after some pointers around coexisting WMB 6.0.0.6 and 6.1.0.3 on the same server and have been trying to find some documentation that clearly states the process.
To me it’s a case of installing in a different location, creating an additional wmqiadm user e.g. wmqiadm2 for a new profile and creating unique resources (Qmgr and DB)
Have I missed anything? – is there a red book? – I’ve looked but cannot find it.

By default the 6.1 runtime installs into different tree that 6.0 so that is easy.
I have 6.0.0.3 & 6.1.0.3 happily residing on my Windows Server. Didn't have to do anything special apart from upgrading Db2 to 9.1 and rembering to use different databases and config mgr directories. _________________ WMQ User since 1999

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.
Thanks for that reassurance - should have mentioned its Unix (AIX) but my main query is really around the additional user – surely I need this for the new .profile?

Yes You will need a new user if you source the mqsiprofile so that it gets defined automatically on loging/terminal startup.
If the profile is not soured then you can select the one your want manually _________________ WMQ User since 1999
