Automatic Broker Startup on the Linux Platform

On Linux systems, scripts that enable automatic startup are placed in the /etc/rc* directory tree during Message Queue installation. To enable the use of these scripts, you must edit the configuration file imqbrokerd.conf (located in IMQ_HOME/etc/ for installations from IPS packages and in /etc/opt/sun/mq/ for installations from RPM packages) as follows:

• To start the broker automatically at system startup, set the AUTOSTART property to YES.

• To have the broker restart automatically after an abnormal exit, set the RESTART property to YES.

• To set startup command line arguments for the broker, specify one or more values for the ARGS property.

To disable automatic broker startup at system startup, edit the configuration file /etc/opt/sun/mq/imqbrokerd.conf and set the AUTOSTART property to NO.
