HI All,

I am new to this forum, I just started working on MQSeries. I am getting some small doubts, Please clarify me.
What is the limit for maximum number of queues we can create in a Queue Manager ?
Basically on which protocol was MQSeries built ?

Thanks & Regards
Venkat

For practical purposes, the limit on the maximum number of MQ objects defined on a queue manager is so high that you don't really need to consider it. I've seen MQ can easily handle tens of thousands of queues (mostly permanent dynamic), but it should be able to do orders of magnitude higher.

What are your requirements?

Hai Glenn,

Thanks for the reply, you mean to say that, there is no such limitation, and what is the basic protocol on which MQSeries was Built ?

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

I mean if you consider SOAP, it was built on http Protocol.
Similarly was MQSeries built on specific protocol ? (like http, TCP/IP..etc)

Thanks

MQ was, like SOAP, built on top of no basic protocol.

MQ, like SOAP, allows you to connect applications by sending specifically formatted messages, and configure the transport of those messages to go over many different protocols, depending on where the specific destination lives.

Why, one could even run MQ over TokenRing!

Hi,

MQSeries supports severals types of transmission protocols for communicating between server-to-server or client-to-server

see here:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv6/v6r0/topic/com.ibm.mq.csqzaf.doc/cs11450_.htm

Internally MQSeries uses its own protocol.

Greetings
Frank

Wrong understanding...SOAP was not build on top of http. SOAP is a separate, independent protocol for specifying message formats while http is a transport protocol which is used for exchanging messages (in soap format or not) across systems

Its just that http is the widely used transport for SOAP messages.

SOAP 1.1 had certain features that relied on the underlying transport, like using SoapAction http header, while the direction of SOAP 1.2 is more towards a transport neutral way

Hi atheek,

I will agree with you, but SOAP extensively makes use of http protocol
for transfering messages.

Cheers

Why do you even need to know?

One of the largest advantages of MQ is that it isolates applications from the transmission protocols. From an application standpoint the sending (or receiving) of a message is the same method regardless of the transmission protocol being used by MQ to actually tranmit the message.
