All Message Queue utilities are accessible via a command line interface. Utility commands share common formats, syntax conventions, and options. They include the following:
The Broker utility (imqbrokerd) starts up brokers and specifies their configuration properties, including connecting them together into a cluster.
The Command utility (imqcmd) controls brokers and their resources and manages physical destinations.
The Object Manager utility (imqobjmgr ) manages provider-independent administered objects in an object store accessible via the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI).
The Database Manager utility (imqdbmgr ) creates and manages databases for persistent storage that conform to the Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) standard.
The User Manager utility (imqusermgr ) populates a file-based user repository for user authentication and authorization.
The Service Administrator utility ( imqsvcadmin) installs and manages a broker as a Windows service.
The Key Tool utility (imqkeytool) generates self-signed certificates for Secure Socket Layer (SSL) authentication.
See Chapter 13, Command Line Reference for detailed information on the use of these utilities.
