All,

Ok, I have an odd survey request.  For your queue managers, what is the number of unique channel definitions?  (i.e. not running channels or instances of running channels).

For WMQ v6, when you create a queue manager, 10 SYSTEM channels are created.  So, if you did the MQSC command of DIS CHL(*), how many channels in total do you have defined per queue manager?

On Unix or Linux, you can use the following command to find out the number:
Code:
echo dis chl(*) | runmqsc {QMgrName} | grep CHANNEL | wc -l


On Windows, you can use the following command:
Code:
echo dis chl(*) | runmqsc {QMgrName} | findstr CHANNEL


Sorry, I don't have any easy commands for z/OS or iSeries.

I'm not looking for confident information and if you want you round the number that is fine too.

How about we use the format of: OS - Environment = ##
i.e.
Windows - Test = 35
Solaris - PROD = 45

Thanks to all who will reply.

Regards,

I have about a hundred SVRCONNs defined on several of my Windows Queue Managers.

All my queue managers are running on Solaris.

The number of channels is the same for test and production.

Typically, I have:
1-2 senders
1-2 receivers
10-12 svrconn for applications

plus whatever system channels are installed by default

Win, AIX, HP-UX and z/OS:

No SVRCONN's (that I'm aware of), a lot of SDR/RCVR's on z/OS and minimal SDR/RCVR's elsewhere. Sorry, can't give numbers but they don't change much across environments.

On one sysplex 6 qmgr all connected.
Less than 5 svrconn total.

On one plex 5 qmgr, 25+ senders no svrconn.

On the last plex same as mr saper(spiderman) i.e. same machine

Well I had not integrated the ZOS qmgr in this because for us it is a little bit the "outsider". I would guess that we have about 25 to 30 defined channels of which less than 15 would be active at any time.

Don't get me wrong... active means up to 300+ instances...(CAF)

All z/OS boxs are outsiders.
