Abstract
The objective of this tutorial is to demonstrate how to setup a gateway queue manager that is in the same Installation of the MQ Web Server on a host that has MQ 9.1, to administer via the MQ REST API a set of remote queue managers.
Content
Once you have a MQ 9.1 Web Server in a given Installation (such as Installation1) in a server, you can use the MQ Web Console to administer local queue managers in the SAME installation as the Console (that is, in Installation1, but not in Installation2).
The MQ REST API, however, can work with both local and remote queue managers.
The objective of this tutorial is to demonstrate how to setup a gateway queue manager that is in the same Installation of the MQ Web Server on a host that has MQ 9.1, to administer via the MQ REST API a set of remote queue managers.
A big benefit is that you do not need to install the MQ Web Server on every remote server that has queue managers that you want to administer via the MQ REST API.
The remote queue managers need to have direct connectivity with the gateway queue manager by means of server and receiver channels.
LIMITATION: The remote queue managers must be MQ 8.0 or later.
The focus for this tutorial is to interact with the MQ REST API with No Security, which might be suitable for Testing environments, but not suitable for Production ones.
The rationale is explained in the 2 main tutorials referenced later on regarding the Configuration of the MQ Web Server and Using the MQ REST API.

The chapters are:
Chapter 1: Setup of MQ Console, MQ REST API and establish Gateway
Chapter 2: Full connectivity between the Gateway and the other queue managers
Chapter 3: Issuing REST API commands via the Gateway queue manager
