Hi,

We have MQ at 7.5.0.3 version on Solaris and Linux servers.

I have queue manager listener name as "LISTENER" and port assigned is 1424.

I need to change the name of the listener to "LISTENER.TCP" and port will be same.

So for doing this name change, should i stop the listener, make the name change and then start the listener?

or

I can make the name change while it is running?

thanks

You can't rename MQ objects. You have to stop them, delete them and create them with new names.

Or you could create the listener with a new name on the same port, in a stopped status, and then stop the old one, start the new one, and delete the old one.

This will limit the time of unavailability.

Also, stopping the listener will *not* interrupt existing connections, merely prevent new connections from being made.
