Bridge Manager Utility

The Bridge Manager utility (imqbridgemgr) is used to manage the bridges configured for a broker, including the links within bridge types that support links. The basic syntax of imqbridgemgr is:

imqbridgemgr subcommand commandArgument [ options ]
imqbridgemgr -h | -help
imqbridgemgr -H | -Help
imqbridgemgr -v | -version

Table 16-17 lists the imqbridgemgr subcommands for general bridge management, Table 16-18 lists the imqbridgemgr subcommands for link management, which are applicable only to bridge types that support links, and Table 16-19 lists the imqbridgemgr options.
