IBM Websphere MQ interview Questions Part 5

MQ Series: - It is an IBM web sphere product which is evolved in 1990’s. MQ series does transportation from one point to other. It is an EAI tool (Middle ware) VERSIONS:-5.0, 5.1, 5.3, 6.0, 7.0(new version). The currently using version is 6.2 Note: – MQ series supports more than 35+ operating systems. It is platform Independent. For every OS we have different MQ series software’s. But the functionality of MQ series Default path for installing MQ series is:- C: programfiles\BM\clipse\SDK30 C: programfiles\IBM\WebsphereMQ After installation it will create a group and user. Some middleware technologies are Tibco, SAP XI. MQ series deals with two things, they are OBJECTS, SERVICES. In OBJECTS we have • QUEUES • CHANNELS • PROCESS • AUTHENTICATION • QUERY MANAGER. In SERVICES we have LISTENERS. Objects: – objects are used to handle the transactions with the help of services. QUEUE MANAGER maintains all the objects and services. QUEUE: – it is a database structure

IBM WebSphere MQ – Common install/uninstall issues for MQ Version on Windows - Middleware News

Creating a log file when you install or uninstall WebSphere MQ WebSphere MQ for Windows is installed using the Microsoft Installer (MSI). If you install the MQ server or client through launchpad , MQPARMS or setup.exe , then a log file is automatically generated in %temp% during installation. Alternatively you can supply parameters on the installation MSI command msiexec to generate a log file, or enable MSI logging system-wide (which generates MSI logs for all install and uninstall operations). If you uninstall through the Windows Add/Remove programs option, no log file is generated. You should either uninstall from the MSI command line and supply parameters to generate a log file, or enable MSI logging system-wide (which generates MSI logs for all install and uninstall operations). For details on how to enable MSI logging, see the following article in the WebSphere MQ product documentation: Advanced installation using msiexec For details on how to enable system-w
