Creating a IBM MQ .bindings file

To properly configure the IBM® Product Master GDS settings, you need to create a .bindings file.

Before you begin

  • Ensure that you have a working server-side installation of IBM MQ. For more information, see IBM MQ documentation.
  • Ensure that you have a queue manager available for use and is started.

You can either use IBM MQ Explorer or MQSC command to create and start a queue manager. Use the MQSC commands as follows:

  1. Log in to shell by using mqm user.
  2. Create a queue manager. Type the crtmqm -q <QUEUE_MGR_NAME> command as:
    crtmqm -q bcg.queue.manager
  3. Start the queue manager. Type strmqm.
