Using the WebSphere MQ JMS administration tool

Use the administration tool to define the properties of eight types of WebSphere® MQ classes for JMS object and to store them within a JNDI namespace. Applications can then use JNDI to retrieve these administered objects from the namespace.

The WebSphere MQ classes JMS objects that you can administer by using the tool are:
  • MQConnectionFactory
  • MQQueueConnectionFactory
  • MQTopicConnectionFactory
  • MQQueue
  • MQTopic
  • MQXAConnectionFactory
  • MQXAQueueConnectionFactory
  • MQXATopicConnectionFactory

For details of these objects, see Administering JMS objects .

The property types and values you require to use this tool are listed in Properties of IBM® WebSphere MQ classes for JMS objects.

The tool also allows administrators to manipulate directory namespace subcontexts within the JNDI. See Manipulating subcontexts with the WebSphere MQ JMS administration tool .

You can also create and configure JMS administered objects with the WebSphere MQ Explorer.
