How to display remote queue managers from client host using CLI

I am new to IBM MQ, wanted to know if its possible to display remote queue managers from client host using CLI, like I can successfully see the remote queue managers in webconsole of client-ibm-mq but how to check that from CLI or PCF or REST call

Solution

  • It is not currently possible to use remote MQ commands (such as PCF or MQSC) to display the queue managers on a machine.

    However, using the MQ Console or the REST API it is possible. Do an HTTP GET from the following URL (changing the domain accordingly):-

    http://localhost:9080/ibmmq/rest/v1/admin/qmgr

    This will show you output like the following:-

    {"qmgr": [
  {
    "name": "MQG1",
    "state": "running"
  },
  {
    "name": "MQG2",
    "state": "ended"
  }
]}

    For more information on this particular REST API, see reference page for HTTP GET from /admin/qmgr
