Administration using the IBM MQ Console

The IBM® MQ Console is a web-based user interface that can be used to perform common administration tasks.

Before you begin

Note:

Do not disable the command server on any of your queue managers when you use the IBM MQ Console. If the command server is disabled for a queue manager, the IBM MQ Console becomes unresponsive with long delays to the processing of commands. Any commands that are issued to the queue manager for which the command server is disabled time out.
When you connect to the IBM MQ Console, the browser attempts to view the IBM MQ Console in the locale set by the browser. A check is made to see whether the IBM MQ Console supports the specified language. If the language files are not found, US English is used, and the mqweb server logs this as file not found errors. Therefore, the following messages are expected when your browser is set to a language that is not supported by the IBM MQ Console:
```
SRVE0190E: File not found: /nls/en_GB/labels.json 
SRVE0190E: File not found: /nls/en_GB/pcf.json 
SRVE0190E: File not found: /nls/en_GB/errors.json 
SRVE0190E: File not found: /nls/en_GB/strings.json
