Users with the Developer role can create queues and view the existing
queues.
About this task
You can also create remote queues if remote queue creation is enabled for your
environment. For more information about remote queues, see Creating remote queues.
When a queue is added, the binding files are pulled from the IBM MQ server and propagated to the
agent (Agent), integration (INTG), and WebSphere Application Server components for the
application.
To add a queue, complete the following steps:
-
Access Self Service with your
IBMid.
-
From the Self Service menu, click
Environments.
- From the list of environments, select an environment.
- In the Queue configuration tab, click Create
queue.
- In the Create queue window, specify the Name
for the queue. The maximum length for the queue name is 48 characters.
Use capital and small letters, numbers, and ., /, and
% special characters in the name.
- The Persistent checkbox is selected by default. When this option
is selected, messages in the queue are persistent and are not lost even when the IBM MQ is
restarted. If you do not want the queue to be persistent, clear this checkbox.
- Specify the Maximum message length in Bytes for the queue
messages.
By default, the length is set to 2000000. The maximum length that can be set is 4000000.
Note: If you specify the length that is greater than the maximum supported length, the length is
reset to the default value.
- Specify the Maximum depth for the queue.
By default, the depth is set to 500000. The maximum depth that can be set is 2000000.
Note: If you specify the queue depth that is greater than the maximum supported depth, the depth is
reset to the default value.
- Optional: Add the usage description for the queue.
- Click Create.
What to do next
You can now create an agent server or integration
server.
