New file management capabilities for the IBM MQ Appliance - Middleware News

The latest firmware update for the MQ Appliance (8.0.0.4) contains a number of new features, which are summarized in an earlier blog post. In this article I'll take a more detailed look at the browser based file management.

The "copy" command in the "config" section of the CLI can be used to transfer files to and from the MQ Appliance, but entering long filenames and getting the syntax exactly right can be time consuming, so having a browser based version can often be easier to use. After logging into the Web UI, the existing actions on the top menu are "Manage Appliance" and "MQ Console". The new "File Management" action has been added between the two. Selecting this action navigates to the main file browsing page:

So for example if you wanted to upload new certificates for the Web UI to use, you would select "Actions > Upload Files" for the "cert:" entry. This gives the following view, from which you can use the "Browse" and "Upload" buttons to complete the upload operation:

Another example is if you need to gather diagnostic information to send to IBM support, using the "runmqras" command. That generates zip files in the "mqdiag:" filesystem. It is now easy to download these from the appliance simply by expanding the "mqdiag:" entry in the file browsing view and selecting the appropriate file name:

Finally, you can use the "Delete" "Copy", "Rename", and "Move" buttons at the top of the file browsing view to perform the appropriate action on the selected file or files.
