IBM MQ Control commands

You can use the IBM® MQ control commands to manage queue managers and to perform various utility functions, such as running MQSC commands.

The IBM MQ control commands can be run from the command line interface in MQ command mode. To enter MQ command mode, type mqcli.

The commands, including the command name itself, the flags, and any arguments, are case-sensitive. For example: 
crtmqm -u SYSTEM.DEAD.LETTER.QUEUE QM1
  • The command name must be crtmqm, not CRTMQM
  • The flag must be -u, not -U
  • The dead-letter queue is called SYSTEM.DEAD.LETTER.QUEUE
  • The argument is specified as QM1, which is different from qm1
