Starting WebSphere Message Queue manager from java

Question

Can we write a code in Java to start/stop a queue manager? I haven't come across any Java API which can be used for this.

Answer 1

You can execute strmqm <qm name> command from your Java program to start the queue manager.

Example:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\WebSphere MQ\bin\strmqm QM1");
