Using Task Scheduler in Windows to restart IBM MQ Web Server at regular intervals

Question & Answer


Question

You are using the IBM MQ Web Console and the MQ REST API Server which require the MQ Web Server to be running in a Windows host, and due to the following situations, you want to create a Task inside the Task Scheduler in Windows to automatically restart the IBM Web Server (using the command strmqweb), and repeat the command at specific intervals, such as 5 minutes:
- Your Windows host gets rebooted frequently (probably due to automatic Windows security patches).
- Or your team is trying to troubleshoot a situation in which intermittently the MQ Web Server is terminated, and you want the MQ Web Server to be restarted automatically.
