| I am trying to add two locations under MO71 to administer the queue managers. Both the queuemanagers have same name, but in different location and i gave different names for the location field in MO71. Problem is that it says that i can't have same queue manager name for different locations. Thats strange even though its same name, but they are in completely diff addresses and i am giving different location names too. I don't know why does it matter to it. Mind you, we are using same queuemanager names coz they are in different environments and doesn't talk to each other. Has anyone faced this issue?? |

Yes. There is no way to have 2 QMs with the same name in MO71. And I am happy that it is that way. You are not supposed to have to QMs with the same name anyway. Besides, the risk of doing the wrong thing to QM1 when you meant to do it to QM1  is to great if MO71 allowed 2 with the same name.

| I have a few w/same name. Click 'File' then 'copy location' Add the distinquishing characters to the location as you stated in your previous post. Then, change the queue manager name to anything unique(stick with me). Save it, then 'open location' and change the queue manager name to what you really want, it will save using the duplicated qmgr name. |

Try using a qmgr alias for the second qmgr.
First define the alias as
def qr(myalias) rqmname(thisqmgr)
then create a new entry in MO71 for qmgr myalias.
See how that works...
Enjoy  |

I doubt there is anything that will reliably monitor queue managers with the same name, that also has a zero price.
It is generally frowned upon to have two queue managers with the same name, regardless of whether they are in the same network or not. For exactly this reason:

| Ya i know its not safe to have same QM's, but at the same time i can't really change the names. Does MQJexplore needs MQ server on the desktop or does client is enough?? |

I'd thought that there was a client version of MO71.
Then you could create different .bat files or something that would set up the client configuration for your different environments.
