  • 1.  mq cluster & clients connections

    Posted Tue March 21, 2023 08:29 AM

    Hello,

    What is a best way to connect mq clients to mq cluster? We would like to use CCDT with CLNTWGHT parameter in order to spread mq connections between qmgrs in cluster. Is it another way to do it?

    How to shut down one of QMGR for maintenance from client point of view ? In order to stop sending messages from other QMGR's , it's possible to run SUSPEND QMGR CLUSTER command.  But how can we push mq clients to switch to other QMGR ( they have both QMGRs in CCDT) ? By stopping SRVCONN ?

    The idea is to "drain" QMGR before shutting it down.

    Thanks

    Yulia

    You should definitely take a look at the Uniform Cluster concept. That's what it's all about.
