We are using MQseries on the iSeries in a developer environment. We have one queue manager and many queues and channels pointing at different servers. One of the developers has just created a new queue manager and accidently took the option to set as default quenue manager.
Is there a way to make our original queue manger the default again?
Thanks in advance,
Lee Palmer. |

It should be a matter of editing mqs.ini...

That's not what the iSeries System Administration Guide says.

Hi,
On a totally different topic, do you have any docs for iSeries (OS400) that fall into the category of 'C programming on iSeries (OS400) for Dummies'.
I've programmed C on DOS, OS/2, Windows, Linux, Unix and z/OS (MVS) but I have never ever touched an iSeries (OS400) box.
IBM is pushing me to port some code to the iSeries but I don't have the foggiest idea where to start.
So, any docs, tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Roger Lacroix

Hi,
Thanks but not enough 'dummy' info. I'm looking for '101 iSeries' info.
i.e. On the z/OS (mainframe):
- To edit a file you type '2' or '=2'
- To get a list of datasets you type '3.4' or '=3.4'
- To see your running jobs (programs) you go to SDSF (i.e. '13.14' or '=13.14' on some systems)
Regards,
Roger Lacroix

Hi,
I can't comment on TAMBI but there are software marketing groups at IBM, who's job it is to get developers / vendors / ISVs to port their products to the various IBM platforms.
When the POWER 5 was launched, the AIX, iSeries and Linux marketing groups all contacted me and pushed / suggested that I port my products to those OSes. I've done 2 now there asking about the third OS (iSeries).

Hey Roger,
For iSeries you will need to create a PF (physical file) and then members within (like a PDS on z/OS). You can then use PDM (AS/400 Programming Development Manager) to edit the member. The command is STRPDM.
There is a C compiler available for iSeries (you may not have it installed). I have used it to edit and recompile MS03 - saveqmgr.
Also, as for your other questions - there isn't really a 3.4 type of interface. No long DS names. Just a lot of libraries with files within. So you can do a WRKLIB to get a list of libraries, and then a 5 against that lib to see files within.
As for SDSF, you want WRKSBS for subsystems and WRKACTJOB to show running processes within the subsystem.
The iSeries is a weird beast but once you get used to it is it quite nice to use. Try WRK* or DSP* from the command line for a list of available commands. If you have MQ installed try WRKMQM*, etc. If you haven't yet installed it, you'll see it's a bit weird. Binaries and logs (called journals on iSeries) reside in the regular filesystem while all of the qmgr data is in the IFS (Integrated File system I think it is), which is a lot like HFS/USS. There's even a shell interface called qsh.
Hope that helps as a start - if you have any other questions, let me know. I'm no iSeries expert, but have just enough knowledge to be dangerous - and to do my job 
Cheers
Steve |

Oh, oh, oh...
How would you like to give me a private tutoring session?  
We could meet at TH for a coffee or two, if you know of one in Toronto that has a wireless access that is?
Name your (reasonable) price or barter (hardware toys or software licenses).
Regards,
Roger Lacroix

This was a suggestion I had forgotten to make... to look at MS03 and it's makefiles and instructions for building on iSeries...
