				Hi
 
I developed a couple of message flows and want to test them by pumping 
 
1000s of messages at once. IBM support pac - IH03 is not at all helpfull.
 
Is there any free tool or any other ibm support pac which can read multiple messages from a file and put them all on the queue.

				From what you say, looks like MQ Sample programs are sufficient.
 
Chk out amqsput0.c 
 
Thats should suffice your need. You should be able to find it under
 
<MQ Root>\Tools\c\samples folder of your mq installation. |

				amqsput utility has a limitation of 100 characters. If you have message longer than 100 chars, this utility might not work for you. 
 
Have you tried supportpac IH02? _________________ Kiran

IH02 is only capable of dumping single message queue at a time. 
 
I require a utility which can post multiple messages in a queue.
 
In your experience,  have you had a requirement to test your message flows by posting multi-messages at a time (say 1000) ?
 
My input message length may be 200 characters and I can have them available in a file. My required utility needs to read from the file and put them on the queue. I guess this is how you test in most of the cases.
 
Advise me. |

				It is very easy to modified the amqsput program to read data from file and put them as messages on input queue. You could try doing the same _________________ Kiran

				Support pack MS0H is the boy for you.  This will allow you to put many instances of a test message on a queue either from a queue or a file.  You can also specify a millisecond sleep interval between puts if you like....
 
 
Its a standard client application and seems to work quite well.

I checked out the tool MSOH. Its great tool for monitoring.
 
when i try to generate messages from the file, as soon as i click on generate button, whole application stops & disappears.
 
my file has only 1 byte message and i specified no. of messages to generate as 1. do i need to setup something else ? reply me please. |
