To start the Administration Console, use one of the following methods:
On Solaris, enter the command
/usr/bin/imqadmin
On Linux, enter the command
/opt/sun/mq/bin/imqadmin
On Windows, navigate to IMQ_HOME\bin and run the imqadmin executable.
For example, use the Windows Explorer to navigate to IMQ_HOME\bin and then double-click imqadmin.
You may need to wait a few seconds before the Administration Console window is displayed (see Figure 2–1).
Take a few seconds to examine the Administration Console window. It has a menu bar at the top, a tool bar just below it, a navigation pane to the left, a result pane to the right (now displaying graphics identifying the Sun JavaTM System Message Queue product), and a status pane at the bottom.
As you work with the Administration Console, you can use the Refresh command on the View menu to update the visual display of any element or group of elements, such as a list of brokers or object stores.
