Dynamic MQ Object creation on a running pod

  • 1.  Dynamic MQ Object creation on a running pod

    Posted Tue October 22, 2024 01:17 PM

    Hi Team,

    Is there a way to create objects from an mqsc or a script (this can be config map too)  on a running MQ instance on CP4i with out recycling the qmanager instance ?

    We would like to explore the options to be able to define objects dynamically on a qmanager while keeping the config maps in sync with new changes and without restarting the qmanager every time we increase depth or when we create new queues.

    Thanks,

    Madhuri

     Hello Madhuri,

    @Martin Evans has an example of doing just this, using an MQ service to run a long-running script that monitors the config map and runs the MQSC file only when the contents change. 

     It's part of the mq-gitops-samples repo, with the script itself at https://github.com/ibm-messaging/mq-gitops-samples/blob/main/queue-manager-deployment/components/scripts/start-mqsc.sh being created as an MQ service by another MQSC script at https://github.com/ibm-messaging/mq-gitops-samples/blob/cbf070b04b8ebf5b879a337db48bfb3be73e8aec/queue-manager-deployment/queue-managers/uniform-cluster-01/uniform/static-uc.mqsc#L4 .

     Hope this helps!

    -- Trevor D.
