Hello. I am more of a novice in MQ and currently using MQ v6.0.2.5.

I have gone through Q-Load (MO03) and Q-Program (MA01) tools. But I don't see a mention of how to Copy messages from a Queue (say, Prod Env) to another Queue (say, Dev Env) with an option to provide the host IP address. Both the Queue Managers are on AIX.

I could not find options useful other than the below-

-i<Q> The name of the Input Queue name (if any) to browse
See "QUEUE NAME FORMAT" for specific details.

-m<QMgr> The name of the Queue Manager to connect to if not the default.

-o<Q> The name of the Output Queue name (if any)
See "QUEUE NAME FORMAT" for specific details.

Copy messages between Queues : q -iQ1 -oQ2

Copy messages from QM1 to QM2 : q -xb -m QM1 -i Q1 -m QM2 -oQ2
The -xb parameter is required on some platforms to allow connection
to two difference Queue Managers from the same thread.


Can anyone suggest an effective way to perform the copy? I am not sure if copying the 'q' file is what I want.

Thanks a lot.

Looks like you need to read the MQ Clients manual. Check out the infocenter link at the top of the page.

Oh Great! That was a pretty dumb question from me.

It worked just fine with the RFHUtilc for all the queues except one. Below is the error msg I received and it's related to allocating buffer. I was unable to do a 'save q' basically-

12.12.19 2010 Max msg length exceeded - check Q/QM/Channel defs - QMgr max=4194304 Queue max=4194304
2010 Max msg length exceeded - check Q/QM/Channel defs - QMgr max=4194304 Queue max=4194304


This particular queue has about 9630 msgs (there are others with a larger CurDepth) and with largest message length of 4209227. Some of the queue attributes are-

CURDEPTH(9630)
DEFPSIST(YES)
MAXDEPTH(1000000)
MAXMSGL(104857600)

Is there a way to pre-allocate the buffer to say, 5 MB for the RFHUtilc? I don't know if I should try changing the AMQSBCG source code and recompile it, etc.

Thanks a lot for the help.

Qload also works in client mode, just unload to file from one QM and load from file to the other. It helps to have a CCDT set up.

MO71 can do it interactively without using files, if you have a xmit queue between the two queue managers.

Qload and MO71, like all of Paul's Clarke's programs, has many useful options if you explore the documentation.

This suggests to me that you have used the MQSERVER variable to set up the connection and below WMQ V7.0 there is a fixed maximum message length of 4MB, and as you need a larger buffer the use of a CCDT is the only option.

Did you try Google and "RFHUtilc download"? It helps!
