You can look at supportPac MA7K.
But, yes, you can do this yourself if you want. |

hi jeff, thanks for the prompt reply.
i know that the i can use that pac for trigger monitor.
But put it aside. How do i configure the client to connect to multiple queue managers?
For windows, there is only 1x MQSERVER env parameter that is hardcoded.
How do i overcome this? |

At the top of the screen click on the MQ Library button, and take a look at the MQ Clients manual. There are several different ways for an MQ Client to specify its connection parameters.

| MQSERVER is a bad way to do things. Use a CCDT. |

Not so much bad, as MQSERVER environment variable allows for only one client connection at a time.
Take a look at the Clients manual for MQCHLLIB and MQCHLTAB environment variables. This method allows for a client channel table from which your application can select the queue manager from the table.
There are issues with concurrent MQCONNections to multiple qmgrs. This is discussed in the Application Programming Reference and Application Programing Guide.

Multiple queue managers at the same time? That a feature I was unaware of.
Much as I was unaware RFHUtil could be used as a trigger monitor in the way the original poster was intending.
