Queue managers

The queue manager owns and manages the queues that are used by the WebSphere® MQ application. Before the connector can open a queue to read and write messages, you must define the connection to the queue manager that hosts that particular queue.

You must meet the following requirements that are determined by the Mode property:

Server
The queue manager must run on the same node as the connector.
Client
The queue manager can run on a remote node in the same network as the connector.

For either mode, the Queue manager property displays a list of queue managers. You can also type a value in the Queue manager property. You can connect to only one queue manager at a time from a connector.
