Building a sample IBM MQ queue manager container image
Use this information to build a sample container image for running an IBM® MQ queue manager in a container.
About this task
Firstly, you build a base image containing an Red Hat® Universal Base Image file system and a clean installation of IBM MQ.
Secondly, you build another container image layer on top of the base, which adds some IBM MQ configuration to allow basic user ID and password security.
Finally, you run a container using this image as its file system, with the contents of /var/mqm provided by a container-specific volume on the host file system.
