In an attempt to split administration rights, I would like to have two queue managers collocated on a single server. One queue manager is to be dedicated to application interaction (where application developers/administrators may manage queues during developent/testing) and the other queue manager dedicated for WBIMB (lets call them QM_APP and QM_WBRK). The plan is to later establish more queue managers for different application areas. The goal is to have messages sent to an application queue (e.g. APPQ1 on QM_APP) forwarded to a queue named WBRKQ1 on QM_WBRK for input to a WBIMB message flow.

The question (problem) that I have is how to configure a "remote" queue in QM_APP that forwards to a local queue in QM_WBRK on the *same machine*. I have attempted two configurations. The first was to setup a remote queue (APPQ1) defined with the broker queue name (WBRKQ1) and the queue manager set to QM_WBRK only. The second attempt was create a setup with channel and transmit queues like the mult-server examples in the MQ documentation - but all on the same host. When I use a setup that does not include a transmission queue/channel, I get an MQRC_UNKNOWN_REMOTE_Q_MGR error. When I try to setup transmission queue/recieve channels between the two queue managers, I get configuration errors because the channel names clash. I've been through the Intercommunication, System Adminstration and Cluster doc and could not find a comparable configuration. Also - can I put both of these queue managers in the same cluster?

Thanks!

Without channels between them, QMs cannot exchange messages, so option 1 will never work. Option 2 is the way to go.

Assume your server is called Server1.
QM_APP listens on port 1414.
QM_WBRK listens on port 1415.

On QM_APP, define a SNDR channel called QM_APP.QM_WBRK, on its conname parameter will say Server1(1415). Also create a RCVR channel called QM_WBRK.QM_APP.

On QM_WBRK, define a SNDR channel called QM_WBRK.QM_APP, on its conname parameter will say Server1(1414). Also create a RCVR channel called QM_APP.QM_WBRK.

Don't get carried away with that. 10 QMs each hosting 10 queues uses alot more resources than 1 QM hosting 100 queues, plus there is a heck of a lot more admin work to do, although clustering will aleviate that somewhat.

Sure.
