setmqscp (set service connection points)
Publish client connection channel definitions in an Active Directory ( Windows only).
Purpose
Note: The setmqscp command applies to IBM® MQ for Windows only.
Use the setmqscp command to configure and administer support for publishing client connection channel definitions in an Active Directory.
Initially, this command is used by a domain administrator to:
- Prepare the Active Directory for IBM MQ use
- Grant IBM MQ users and administrators the relevant authorities to access and update the IBM MQ Active Directory objects
You can also use the setmqscp command to display all the currently configured client connection channel definitions available on the Active Directory.
Syntax
Optional parameters
You must specify one of -a (add), -r (remove) or -d (display).
- -a
- Adds the IBM MQ MQI client connections Active
Directory container, if it does not already exist. You must be a user with the appropriate
privileges to create subcontainers in the System container of your domain. The IBM MQ folder is called
CN=IBM-MQClientConnections
. Do not delete this folder in any other way than by using thesetmqscp -r
command. - -d
- Displays the service connection points.
- -r
- Removes the service connection points. If you omit -m, and no client connection definitions exist in the IBM-MQClientConnections folder, the folder itself is removed from the Active Directory.
- -m [ * | qmgr ]
- Modifies the specified parameter (-a or -r) so that only the specified queue manager is affected.
- * | qmgr
- * specifies that all queue managers are affected. This enables you to migrate a specific client connection table file from one queue manager alone, if required.
Examples
The following command creates the IBM-MQClientConnections folder and allocates the required
permissions to IBM MQ administrators for the folder, and
to child objects created subsequently:
setmqscp -a
The following command migrates existing client connection definitions from a local queue manager,
Paint.queue.manager, to the Active Directory:
setmqscp -a -m Paint.queue.manager
The following command migrates all client connection definitions on the local server to the
Active Directory:
setmqscp -a -m *
