Sun Java System Message Queue 4.3 Administration Guide

Appendix A Platform-Specific Locations of Message Queue Data

Sun JavaTM System Message Queue data is stored in different locations on different operating system platforms. The tables that follow show the location of various types of Message Queue data on the following platforms:

In the tables, instanceName denotes the name of the broker instance with which the data is associated.

Solaris OS

Table A–1 shows the location of Message Queue data on the Solaris operating system. If you are using Message Queue on Solaris with the standalone version of Sun Java System Application Server, the directory structure is like that described under Windows.

AIX

Table A–4 shows the location of Message Queue data on the AIX operating system. Locations denote the Message Queue installation home directory, mqInstallHome, as well as the the IMQ_HOME and IMQ_VARHOME directory variables defined in Directory Variable Conventions.

Windows

Table A–4 shows the location of Message Queue data on the Windows operating system. The table also applies to the Solaris platform when Message Queue is bundled with the standalone version of Sun Java System Application Server. That version of Application Server is bundled with neither Solaris nor Sun Java Enterprise System. Use the pathnames in Table A–4, but change the direction of the slash characters from the Windows backslash (\) to the Solaris forward slash (/). SeeDirectory Variable Conventions for definitions of the IMQ_HOME and IMQ_VARHOME directory variables.
