Creating a WebSphere MQ Real-Time Event Queue

Use these steps to configure WebSphere MQ:

1. Open the WebSphere MQ Explorer and navigate to the Queue Manager.

   The default queue manager is typically named QM_<hostname>, where <hostname> is the machine name where WebSphere MQ is installed.

   Note: If the QM_<hostname> queue is not created, then manually create the queue. Right-click Queue Managers, select New, and then select Queue Manager. Complete the data fields on each successive screen.

2. Under Queue Manager, select the Queues folder.

   This shows any existing queues hosted by this queue manager.

3. To create the queue for delivery of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne events, select New then Local Queue from the Action menu on the WebSphere MQ Explorer.

   Note: On Create Local Queue, enter a meaningful queue name, for example, RTE_TEST_QUEUE.

4. To make the queue persistent, select the Persistent option for the Default Persistence field.

   The default settings should be sufficient for the remaining configuration values.

Important: When entering queue names for IBM WebSphere MQ, the queue name must be all upper case.
