4. Describe the necessary pre-requisites for implementing an IBM WebSphere MQ configuration
5. Demonstrate appropriate logging options for a recovery strategy
Section 2 - Installation and Configuration (16%)
1. Create a working queue manager
2. Create the necessary IBM WebSphere MQ objects to support an application
3. Demonstrate differences between persistent and non-persistent messages
4. Apply features of IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer, MQSC scripting, PCF commands, ISPF panels (Interactive Systems Productivity Facility), and Command Language (CL)
5. Create or modify IBM WebSphere MQ objects necessary for a triggered application
6. Configure IBM WebSphere MQ objects for Web Services and HTTP

Section 3 - Basic Administration (14%)
1. Operating queue managers and appropriate queue manager services
2. Prepare procedures to recover messages and queues in the event of failure
3. Analyze IBM WebSphere MQ performance for application throughput
4. Monitor and change IBM WebSphere MQ objects using the administrative facilities
5. Configure IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer for remote administration
Section 4 - Distributed Queuing and Clustered Queue Management (21%)
1. Analyze and select the appropriate IBM WebSphere MQ configuration. (e.g., hub and spoke, star, clustering)
2. Create the appropriate IBM WebSphere MQ objects to satisfy a WebSphere MQ network design
3. Install an IBM WebSphere MQ client and connect the client to a queue manager
4. Use appropriate methods of operating channels

1. Locate problem information (e.g., IBM WebSphere MQ error logs, operating system logs, FFST files)
2. Investigate and determine the cause of a problem
3. Produce an IBM WebSphere MQ trace
4. Monitor messages (e.g., event monitoring, accounting/statistical gathering)
5. Recover from a problem
Section 7 - Security (11%)
1. Describe the security features provided in IBM WebSphere MQ
