Ok, so I am reviewing the "whats new" in V7.1 and come across this:
| Quote: |
| In WebSphere MQ for Windows version 7.1, you can run multi-instance queue managers on Windows servers or workstations that are part of a domain. In version 7.0.1, multi-instance queue managers had to run on domain controllers. |
Well reading a little deeper this may not really be the case. I came across this interesting note.
| Quote: |
| An example shows how to set up a multi-instance queue manager on Windows on a workstation or a server that is part of a Windows domain. The server does not have to be a domain controller. The setup is small and simple, to demonstrate the concepts involved, rather than being production scale. |
So exactly what does "rather than being production scale" mean?
So, has the Domain Controller requirement on windows been lifted or not? |

I took that to mean "...we are demonstrating how it can be done on some cheap and cheerful bits of tin we had lying around in the lab. Of course you would use proper servers, with all the Production-level safeguards that that environment requires...".
Reading through the examples given, it appears that the requirement to only install on DCs is lifted, but DCs are still required, i.e. if you're only running a Windows workgroup you're out of luck, and interestingly, the main body text of the V7.1 Info Centre still states that MI queue managers require configuration on DCs.

| Ok, so as long as we use a domain id whose SID has access to the queue and log files from both nodes we're good. |

You need to have MQ running under a domain id, which in turn is a member of a domain group.
You then supply that domain group on the crtmqm (I dont believe it can be changed later) and the domain groups SID is added to the ACL's of the files to enable access to remain when running on the standby |
