Introduction<br />

In this lab, you construct an IBM MQ cluster that uses multiple transmission queues to separate the<br />

workload. You then add more complexity by creating overlapping clusters that share full repository<br />

queue managers.<br />

In Part 1 of this exercise, you start the queue managers and cluster, create the cluster queues, and<br />

configure an existing cluster to use multiple transmission queues.<br />

In Part 2 of this exercise, you update the cluster to use multiple transmission queues. You also use<br />

the dspmqrte command to verify that the messages are routed through the dynamically created<br />

transmission queue.<br />

In Part 3 of this exercise, you create overlapping clusters that share a full repository queue<br />

manager.<br />

In Part 4 of this exercise, you configure the cluster so that you can put messages across the<br />

clusters.<br />

After completing this exercise, you should be able to:<br />

• Use multiple transmission queues to separate the workload<br />

• Use the IBM MQ display route command (dspmqrte) to verify the transmission queues<br />

• Create overlapping clusters<br />

This lab is taken from the three-day IBM course WM252, Designing, Implementing, and Managing<br />

IBM MQ V8 Clusters.<br />

The estimated time for this lab is 1.5 hours.<br />

Log in to the VMware image for this lab by using the following credentials:<br />

User name: Administrator<br />

Password: web1sphere<br />

Attention: This lab assumes that you have basic experience with IBM MQ system administration<br />

on distributed operating systems and IBM MQ Explorer.<br />

Exercise<br />

Task 1<br />

Creating the cluster queues<br />

In this part of the exercise, you start the queue managers and cluster, create the cluster queues,<br />

and configure an existing cluster to use multiple transmission queues.<br />

1. Start IBM MQ Explorer by double-clicking the WebSphere MQ Explorer shortcut icon.<br />

2. Stop the queue managers in the PubSubCluster<strong>Lab</strong> queue manager set by right-clicking<br />

PubSubCluster<strong>Lab</strong> queue manager set in the MQ Explorer - Navigator view, and then<br />

clicking Stop Local Queue Managers.<br />

3. The queue managers for this lab are defined in the queue manager set that is named<br />

OverlappingClusters<strong>Lab</strong>.<br />

Start the queue managers in the OverlappingClusters<strong>Lab</strong> queue manager set by right-clicking<br />

OverlappingClusters<strong>Lab</strong> in the MQ Explorer - Navigator view, and then clicking Start Local<br />

Queue Managers. Click OK to start the queue managers as created.<br />

4. Verify that the queue managers, listeners, and channels are running on QMC1, QMC2, QMC3,<br />

and QMC4.<br />

Attention: It might take a minute or two for the IBM MQ Explorer to update and show that the<br />

queue managers and cluster are active.<br />

V7.0<br />

Exercise<br />

Uempty<br />

5. This exercise requires a cluster-queue that is named SALES on QMC3 and MARKETING on<br />

QMC4 and QMC5.<br />

a. Add the SALES cluster queue to QMC3.<br />

Using runmqsc for QMC3, type:<br />

DEFINE QL(SALES) CLUSTER(CLUS1) DEFBIND(NOTFIXED)<br />

b. Add the MARKETING cluster queue to QMC4.<br />

Using runmqsc for QMC4, type:<br />

DEFINE QL(MARKETING) CLUSTER(CLUS1) DEFBIND(NOTFIXED)<br />

c. Add the MARKETING cluster queue to QMC5.<br />

Using runmqsc for QMC5, type:<br />

DEFINE QL(MARKETING) CLUSTER(CLUS1) DEFBIND(NOTFIXED)<br />

Attention: Ensure that the listeners and channels are running before you continue. If a queue<br />

manager cannot communicate with other queue managers in the cluster, you might encounter<br />

errors in subsequent steps, such as the reason code 2085: MQRC_UNKNOWN_OBJECT_NAME.<br />

6. In a command window, use the Put sample amqsput to test the cluster.<br />

Send messages to the SALES and MARKETING cluster queues from the queue managers that<br />

are called QMC1 and QMC2.<br />

To send a message by using the amsput command, enter some text, such as “Hello World”, and<br />

press Enter. To end the application when you finished sending requests, press Enter without<br />

entering any text beforehand.<br />

a. Send messages to the SALES queue from QMC1. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput SALES QMC1<br />

b. Send messages to the MARKETING queue from QMC1. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput MARKETING QMC1<br />

c. Send messages to the SALES queue from QMC2. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput SALES QMC2<br />

d. Send messages to the MARKETING queue from QMC2. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput MARKETING QMC2<br />

7. Use IBM MQ Explorer to confirm that messages were delivered correctly.<br />

8. After you examine the messages, use IBM MQ Explorer to clear the SALES and MARKETING<br />

queues. Clearing the queues makes it easier to determine the outcome of subsequent steps<br />

that rerun the amqsput sample program.<br />

Exercise<br />

Task 2<br />

Enabling the automatic creation of transmission<br />

queues<br />

Now that you have created and verified the initial cluster configuration, you can update the cluster<br />

to use multiple transmission queues. Messages are sent only from queue manager QMC1 and<br />

QM2, so these managers are the only queue managers that must be updated.<br />

1. Modify QMC1 and QMC2 to automatically define a permanent-dynamic queue for the cluster<br />

sender channel. This queue has the name SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.ChannelName<br />

a. Using runmqsc for QMC1, type the following command:<br />

ALTER QMGR DEFCLXQ(CHANNEL)<br />

b. Using runmqsc for QMC2, type the following command:<br />

ALTER QMGR DEFCLXQ(CHANNEL)<br />

2. You must restart each cluster-sender channel that sends application messages on QMC1 and<br />

QMC2 for the configuration change to become effective.<br />

a. Using runmqsc for QMC1, type the following commands:<br />

STOP CHANNEL(CLUS1.QMC3)<br />

STOP CHANNEL(CLUS1.QMC4)<br />

STOP CHANNEL(CLUS1.QMC5)<br />

START CHANNEL(CLUS1.QMC3)<br />

START CHANNEL(CLUS1.QMC4)<br />

START CHANNEL(CLUS1.QMC5)<br />

b. Run the same commands for QMC2 to stop and start the cluster-sender channels.<br />

Attention: In Part 1 of this exercise, the cluster configuration was verified by sending messages.<br />

If you did not put several messages (at least 10), a channel might not be created between every<br />

pair of queue managers. When you try to stop the channels, one or more of the commands might<br />

fail because the channel does not exist. Ignore this error; when a channel is created, it recognizes<br />

the value of the DEFCLXQ attribute.<br />

3. Confirm the use of multiple cluster transmission queues by displaying the status of the<br />

cluster-sender channels.<br />

a. Using runmqsc for QMC1, type<br />

DISPLAY CHSTATUS(*) WHERE(CHLTYPE EQ CLUSSDR)<br />

SUBSTATE(MQGET)<br />

XMITQ(SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.CLUS1.QMC4)<br />

AMQ8417: Display Channel Status details.<br />

CHANNEL(CLUS1.QMC5) CHLTYPE(CLUSSDR)<br />

CONNAME(127.0.0.1(9015)) CURRENT<br />

RQMNAME(QMC5)<br />

STATUS(RUNNING)<br />

SUBSTATE(MQGET)<br />

XMITQ(SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.CLUS1.QMC5)<br />

When the status information for active channels is displayed, the XMITQ attribute identifies<br />

the transmission queue that is each channel uses.<br />

The example shows that the channels CLUS1.QMC3, CLUS1.QMC4, and CLUS1.QMC5<br />

are using a dynamically created transmission queue. In the example, CLUS1.QMC2 is still<br />

using the SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.QUEUE transmission queue because it was not<br />

restarted.<br />

b. Using runmqsc for QMC2, verify that the cluster-sender channels are using the dynamically<br />

created transmission queues. Type:<br />

DISPLAY CHSTATUS(*) WHERE(CHLTYPE EQ CLUSSDR)<br />

4. To ensure that messages are still delivered correctly within the cluster, put several messages to<br />

the queues SALES and MARKETING by using the amqsput command. Use IBM MQ Explorer to<br />

confirm that messages were delivered correctly.<br />

a. Send messages to the SALES queue from QMC1. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput SALES QMC1<br />

b. Send messages to the MARKETING queue from QMC1. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput MARKETING QMC1<br />

Exercise<br />

c. Send messages to the SALES queue from QMC2. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput SALES QMC2<br />

d. Send messages to the MARKETING queue from QMC2. Run the following command:<br />

amqsput MARKETING QMC2<br />

5. To verify that messages were routed through the dynamically created transmission queues, run<br />

the dspmqrte command and examine the results. Type:<br />

dspmqrte -m QMC1 -q MARKETING -ac -v outline<br />

The dspmqrte program should return results similar to the following example, which shows that<br />

the message was put on the SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.CLUS1.QMC4 queue.<br />

AMQ8653: DSPMQRTE command started with options '-m QMC1 -q MARKETING -ac -v<br />

outline'.<br />

AMQ8659: DSPMQRTE command successfully put a message on queue<br />

'SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.CLUS1.QMC4', queue manager 'QMC1'.<br />

AMQ8674: DSPMQRTE command is now waiting for information to display.<br />

queue.<br />

Run the dspmqrte command again and verify that this time the message is routed to the<br />

transmission queue for the other queue manager.<br />

For example, if the first dspmqrte command shows that the message is routed to QMC4 on<br />

SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.CLUS.QMC4 then the second dspmqrte command should<br />

show that the message is routed to QMC5 on SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.CLUS.QMC5.<br />

7. After you examine the messages, use IBM MQ Explorer to clear the SALES and MARKETING<br />

queues on QMC3, QMC4, and QMC5.<br />

Clearing the queues makes it easier to determine the outcome of subsequent steps that rerun<br />

the amqsput sample program.<br />

Exercise<br />

Task 3<br />

Creating an overlapping cluster<br />

In this part of the exercise, you create a new cluster that is named CLUS2. As shown in the figure,<br />

CLUS2 uses the full repository queue managers from CLUS1 (QMC1 and QMC2) and two new<br />

partial repository queue managers that are named QMCA and QMCB.<br />

In this part of the exercise, the amqsput sample program is used to send messages to a queue that<br />

is called ACCOUNTING, which is on QMCA and QMCB.<br />

DEFINE CHANNEL(CLUS2.QMCB) CHLTYPE(CLUSRCVR) +<br />

TRPTYPE(TCP) CONNAME('localhost(9017)') CLUSTER(CLUS2)<br />

DEFINE CHANNEL(CLUS2.QMC2) CHLTYPE(CLUSSDR) +<br />

TRPTYPE(TCP) CONNAME('localhost(9012)') CLUSTER(CLUS2)<br />

5. Add the queue ACCOUNTING to the partial repositories (QMCA and QMCB) in CLUS2.<br />

Using runmqsc for QMCA and QMCB, type the following command:<br />

DEFINE QL(ACCOUNTING) CLUSTER(CLUS2) DEFBIND(NOTFIXED)<br />

6. Check that the cluster changes that you created with the previous steps are propagated though<br />

the cluster.<br />

a. Using runmqsc for QMC1 (a full repository queue manager), type the following command<br />

and examine the results.<br />

DIS CLUSQMGR(*)<br />

You should see that there are two entries for QMC1 and QMC2: one entry for CLUS1 and<br />

one entry for CLUS2. You should also see the two new partial repository queue managers<br />

for CLUS2 (QMCA and QMCB).<br />

b. Using runmqsc for QMC1, type the following command to verify that the ACCOUNTING<br />

cluster queue is defined correctly on QMCA and QMCB.<br />

DIS QCLUSTER(ACCOUNTING)<br />

c. View the cluster in IBM MQ Explorer. You should now see two clusters (CLUS1 and<br />

CLUS2). QMC1 and QMC2 should be listed as full repository queue managers for both<br />

clusters.<br />

7. Use amqsput sample program on QMC1 and QMC2 to put messages to the ACCOUNTING<br />

cluster queue on QMCA and QMCB.<br />

Examples:<br />

amqsput ACCOUNTING QMC1<br />

amqsput ACCOUNTING QMC2<br />

8. Use IBM MQ Explorer to verify that the messages arrived on QMCA and QMCB, which confirms<br />

that working cluster exists.<br />

Task 4<br />

Putting messages across the clusters<br />

In this part of the exercise configure the cluster so that queues can be referenced in both clusters.<br />

First you create a cluster queue on QMC1 that is shared by both CLUS1 and CLUS2.<br />

Next, you create a queue alias so that you can put a message from QMCA on CLUS2 to the SALES<br />

queue on QMC3 in CLUS1.<br />

1. Create a cluster queue that is named SHAREQ on QMC1 that is shared in both clusters.<br />

Using runmqsc for QMC1, type:<br />

DEF QL(SHAREQ) CLUSNL(CLUSTER)<br />

2. Verify that you can put messages to SHAREQ by using the amqsput sample program.<br />

a. To verify that you can put to SHAREQ from a queue manager that is in CLUS1, type:<br />

amqsput SHAREQ QMC3<br />

b. To verify that you can put to SHAREQ from a queue manager that is in CLUS2, type:<br />

ampsput SHAREQ QMCA<br />

3. On QMC1 (a bridge queue manager), create a queue alias so that you can put a message from<br />

QMCA on CLUS2 to the SALES queue on QMC3 in CLUS1.<br />

On QMC1, create an queue alias that is named MYSALES that targets the SALES queue on<br />

QMC3 and shares it with CLUS2. Type:<br />

DEF QA(MYSALES) TARGQ(SALES) CLUSTER(CLUS2) DEFBIND(NOTFIXED)<br />

Attention: When you open a queue, you need to set DEFBIND to either NOTFIXED or QDEF. If<br />

DEFBIND is left as the default, OPEN, the queue manager resolves the alias definition to the bridge<br />

queue manager that hosts it. The bridge does not forward the message.<br />

4. Verify that you can put a message from QMCA in CLUS2 to QMC3 in CLUS1 by using the alias<br />

queue MYSALES. Type:<br />

amqsput MYSALES QMCA<br />
