Hi
I had installed Message Broker trial version 7 and had created couple of brokers in it. When product got expired and recently I uninstalled version 7 and installed MB version 8. Now those Brokers didn't get deleted and are coming up in the MB Explorer with error. The corresponding queue managers does not exist. I just like to clear up these Brokers and when I try deleting through Explorer or command window I am getting error. Is there a way to delete it?

Each component has configuration data associated with it, and this data is versi
oned to ensure that the component can only be run under a product version that s
upports this level. The component level is 5 and the current code level only sup
ports 6. |

Kill all broker processes ("ps -eaf | grep mqsi" must return nothing or only the one process / the "ps -eaf | grep mqsi" process itself).
Delete the broker installation directory:
rm -r /opt/IBM/mqsi/7.0
Delete the broker working directory:
rm -r /var/mqsi (or go into it and just delete the relevant brokers or parts)
All with care / no gurantees, carefully look (esp. if you do not want to clean your machine from all Broker, esp. if you have / want to preserve another (e.g. a Broker 8 installation))

What about the OP's V8 broker then? You have just messed it up by doing this.
The OP didn't state they they were using Linux/Unix.
If you are using Windows you may have to resort to some Registry editing as well.
It would be nice if the trial version 'mqsideletebroker' utility didn't check for license expiry. Then at least you could remove things cleanly.

Hi,
For Windows, you need to do the following:
- stop all mq related processes
- remove MB7BROKER folder form %APP_DATA%/IBM/MQSI/components
- remove MB7BROKER folder form %APP_DATA%/IBM/MQSI/registry
- remove old Broker service from Windows services using registry editor
- restart MQ
- delete old QMgr that was defined for Broker via MQ Explorer
%APP_DATA% - is folder with user data, for Win2k8 it is C:\ProgramData
Hope it helps.

c:\ProgramData
is for some reason known only to Microsoft, a hidden folder. One of the first things I do is to make this visible using the 'arrtib' command.

If you remember the broker queue manager names, create those (with crtmqm).
start and stop them.
Then delete the brokers with mqsidelete using the -q option. |

| Even if you don't remember the queue manager names, do mqsilist and it should list the associated queue manager (which you need to create) |
