Hi,
I am new to IBM MQ and recently installed Powershell with IBM MQ to read certain properties of IBM MQ installed on my server.
I am able to get local Queue Managers using Get-WMQQueueManager command, however when i fire any other command than this powershell is throwing error.
For example: Get-WMQQueue : Index and count must refer to a location within the buffer.
This is really acting as a showstopper as i need to get queue details using PS. Can someone please help me with this?
Thanks

There are otherways to get Queue Details or are you tasked to use only PowerShell?
Did you look at the documentation supplied with the support pack to see what features are supported by the Support Pack?
Personally, using Powershell would be about 4 on my list of 4 ways to get Queue Details.

Hi,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, we need to use powershell only to get this information.
I have followed all the support documentation for MO74. I tried on multiple server where MQ is installed.....still no luck!
This is really getting crazy!
Thanks

you have yet to tell us exactly what is going wrong?
Just saying it does not work won't help us to help you solve you exact problem
Care to explain why you can only use powershell? What is wrong with other methods?

We are building a monitoring tool which uses powershell scripts to various elements of our environment. MQ being one of the critical part of our environment, we would like to monitor various aspects of MQ using powershell.
We will be needing information like, Queue status, queue depth etc.
Please let me know if need any further details!
Thanks

Most of these stats can be received using either PCF Request/Response or using Event messages.
I don't know if Powershell is an actively supported development environment for MQ any more.

I would reiterate the comments made by others before me. Please show us the full command you sent as well as the error you received so we can help further.

I don't know either, but it was very recently updated
