Linux Red Hat MQ Monitor Template

IBM MQ is the most popular system for cross- platform messaging, providing assured delivery of messages across 35 plus IBM and non-IBM platforms, including IBM mainframe and midrange, Windows, AIX and Linux.

Central Configuration Manager contains a Linux Template for managing MQ installations running on Linux Red Hat. This contains the following monitors: 

The script monitor is the engine-room of the MQ monitor. Use the script provided to interrogate an MQ environment.

The script is installed to, and must reside in /var/lib/halcyon

Configure the hmq.config file to point to the MQ installation namely:

• The location of the runmqsc command.

• The location of the mqs.ini file.
