I am not an IMS specialist and I am searching where to find out a sample of an IMS mqseries cobol program to see how to use IMS commands instead of the MQI calls .
Thanks for any information.

I don't think you can replace the MQI calls with IMS calls. We have asked IBM for just that, so output/input to an IMS program could be essentially transparent - that is the calls would be executed just like gets/inserts to an LU. But they don't seem to have that on their priority list, because we never got a reply. I have one program which does all its communication via MQI calls (requests and replies) while developing the content for replies using IMS DB calls, and logging security information to a DB2 database. I have another program which must receive single-page IMS messages from the I/O pcb, and must send datagrams to a downstream process using MQI calls. IMS calls to the I/O pcb cause syncpoints, and we must couple MQCONN with MQPUT1 calls, because a single connection and open won't do. I can't send you code because we're using PL/I, but I believe the situation is the same for COBOL.

Iam not sure if this is what you are looking for, but we have a product
called OTMA which bridges MQSeries to IMS.
We send IMS Request to the mainframe as MQSeries messages and the
queue on the mainframe has the OTMA program pick it up and place it in the IMS enviroment, and the IMS Transaction is executed and replies back using whatever IMS uses to write to terminals.
