Is there a way to export all the current JMS destinations for my queue manager into a file that could then be used with the JMSAdmin utility?

Sort of like the dmpmqcfg that exports definitions into a format that can be used with runmqsc to redefine all the objects. I'd like to be able to export all the JMS destinations into a file with the output similar to:

DEF Q(queue:\\QMGR1\QUEUE.A) QUEUE(QUEUE.A) TC(MQ) QMGR(QMGR1)
DEF Q(queue:\\QMGR2\QUEUE.B) QUEUE(QUEUE.B) TC(MQ) QMGR(QMGR2)
END

The original versions of what is now dmpmqcfg, were tools that issued DISPLAY commands and got all the parameters back, and then did a search and replace for the keyword "DISPLAY" with the keyword "DEFINE" in order to allow replay. These tools got more sophisticated over time being able to remove things like ALTDATE and ALTTIME from DISPLAY output because those were not valid on DEFINE commands.

I have not tried out the above with JMS Admin, but you could give it a go and see how much tweaking it needs.

Cheers,

Excellent advice. I'd look at the output of dis q(*), dis cf(*), qcf(*), xaqcf(*), topid factories etc... Then redirect into a file and edit the file if need be.
Use the file to recreate a context and compare...

Thank you for the assistance. This is what I've come up with. Pipe the output of the DIS to a file, it ends up looking like this:
Q(QUEUE.A)
CCSID(1208)
DESCRIPTION(This is Queue A)
ENCODING(NATIVE)
EXPIRY(APP)
FAILIFQUIESCE(YES)
MDMSGCTX(DEFAULT)
MDREAD(NO)
MDWRITE(NO) ... and so on.

All I need to do is replace the 'Q(' with 'DEF Q(', then add a Plus sign to the end of each line to get a file I can use to pipe into the JMSAdmin utility. Like so:
DEF Q(QUEUE.A) +
CCSID(1208) +
DESCRIPTION(This is Queue A) +
ENCODING(NATIVE) +
EXPIRY(APP) +
FAILIFQUIESCE(YES) +
MDMSGCTX(DEFAULT) +
MDREAD(NO) +
MDWRITE(NO) + ... and so on until it's the last attribute.

Thanks again.

Glad to hear its a workable output.
