Disabling default value updates to the queue manager specification

The IBM® MQ Operator updates any unspecified values in the queue manager specification with their default values. You can disable this behavior if you want to avoid any modifications to the queue manager specification. The queue manager status fields are still updated.

Procedure

Disable queue manager default value updates.

Add the following annotation under metadata. For example:

apiVersion: mq.ibm.com/v1beta1
kind: QueueManager
metadata:
  name: quickstart-cp4i
  annotations:
    "com.ibm.mq/write-defaults-spec" : "false"

Note: The quickstart examples have this annotation applied by default.
