I need to start MQ at server boot. I'm kind on newby in linux/unix. What should I do?
I know I should start the MQ server and then the Mq listener.

Thanks in advance,

Vladimir

Create a script that looks something like this one or modify this one and change the qmgr name:

Code:

#! /bin/sh
#

# init the rc.status env
. /etc/rc.status

echo "Running Prototype RC for MQSeries "
rc_reset

case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting WebSphere MQSeries"
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./strmqm yourqmgr "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./strmqcsv yourqmgr "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./runmqlsr -m yourqmgr -t TCP -p 1414 & "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./runmqtrm -q YOUR.INIT.QUEUE -m yourqmgr & "

rc_status -v
;;

stop)
echo -n "Stoping WebSphere MQSeries"
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./endmqm -i yourqmgr "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./endmqlsr -m yourqmgr & "

rc_status -v
;;

restart)
echo -n "Restarting WebSphere MQSeries"
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./endmqm -i yourqmgr"
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./endmqlsr -m yourqmgr& "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./strmqm yourqmgr"
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./strmqcsv yourqmgr"
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./runmqlsr -m yourqmgr-t TCP -p 1414 & "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./runmqtrm -q YOUR.INIT.QUEUE -m yourqmgr& "

rc_status
;;

status)
echo -n "WebSphere MQSeries status "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./dspmq "
su - mqm -c "cd /opt/mqm/bin; ./dspmqcsv "

rc_status -v
;;

*)
echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop | restart | status }"
exit 1
;;
esac
rc_exit 0

You will need to be root to do this.
Put this file in /etc/rc.d. I call this one mqseries but the name doesn't matter.

Go to /etc/rc.d/rc2.d and create 2 links to this file.
K20mqseries -> ../mqseries
S20mqseries -> ../mqseries

The number, e.g. 20 can be any number that is not already assigned in this directory. The Sxxmqseries gets called when linux boots up in ring 2 and Sxxmqseries gets called when linux shuts down.

Repeat this for each ring you want to start/stop MQ, i.e. rc3.d, rc4.d, etc

Hope this helps,
Charlie

Im new to unix as well, I have this working on Solaris as a stand alone script, but how does solaris know at bootime which case to use? I.E. how do i know at bootime it will use the start case.... and at shutodwn use the stop case....

Ask your systems administrator.

Really!

Or at least, use 'man' to look at the documentation for your initd.

i guess this is what i needed from man page

It passes the argument 'stop' for scripts prefixed
with K and the argument 'start' for scripts prefixed with S.

cool thanks for the tip jeffrey

Given that it says that on my birth certificate... and compared to "Jeffrey", yes, yes I do.

And csaunders... you don't know my demeanor - unless I've met you in person and don't know you by "csaunders". At best, you know my MQSeries.net persona - and even then, you only know YOUR interpretation of it, not mine!

It's a complex world, and very hard to judge motivations from text alone!
