I have a question on MQ HA- Hardware failover. I have searched google for high availability and all I could get is more on MQ Clustering.
I think MQ clustering is more of HA solution from software perspective. I would like to know from the Hardware perspective.

Let us say I have a queue manager installed on a UNIX machine UM1 and I have a failover box UM2. In the event of failing of UM1, I would like to move to new machine UM2. One thing I can do is to use some HA software like veritas or someother to move all the network configurations, file system to the new machine. But I am not sure how it works in the case of MQ. Let us say I have 100 messages waiting on the queue of QM located on UM1. How can I move all these queues/queue manager data and information to the UM2.

I am not an infrastructure person, I am just guessing the above how it might work in case of HA with hardware failover.

Please let me know how one can implement a HA solution in case of hardware failover for a Web application that is using MQ and WAS.

Apparently the words you chose to Google with weren't appropraite. There is TONS of info on the web on hardware clustering and MQ.

Do a search on this site. This topic has been talked about a lot and there are links to whitepapers on the topic and chapters in the MQ Info Center.
