Hello All,

My lead wants me explore whether we can install IBM MQ using SSH ansible and whether we can create MQ objects using ansible in n number of server.

If any one have done this please let me know whether its possible or not.

Thanks

PK

Location: US: west coast, almost. Otherwise, enroute.

1. Go to google.
2. Search for 'ansible+mq'.

Installation via ansible - Yes, it's possible.

There are no Ansible modules specific to IBM MQ just like they are for Rabbitmq (as far as I know)

So you would create a playbook to Install MQ binaries just like you would install any other generic package.

One of the steps of playbook would be to push MQ package to remote servers from a central location before you can run install steps from the playbook.

One way of package distribution: If you have rpm based OS all across then you could create a repository of MQ rpms in one of the central location; run a web server on this location.
And have individual nodes pull those rpms from that central location using yum. You would have to Add/Enable MQ repository metadata info in these individual nodes at /etc/yum.repos.d/
The benefit is that you could add/edit rpms going forward ( say MQ FP install in future). This is indeed scalable. More information

On MQ object creation via ansible: Again since there are no Ansible modules available but you could write your own script and hit that script to all end nodes using Ansible Playbook.
You can also use ansible ad-hoc command interface for this.
