Does WMQv5.3.7 have DEFINE LISTENER? I thought that came in with v6. |
It did, but the QB manual stated that use of inetd and /etc/services was deprecated, and that runmqlsr should be used. That said, at my current site it was left in when the migration to V5.3 occurred - no validity review was carried out (not unusual I suspect).

I know all that, and I got left with a lot of inetd as well on the "leave well enough alone" principle.
My point is that I though below v6 you had to explicitly use runmqlsr; you couldn't administer it via runmqsc because it wasn't a queue manager object at that level.

My misinterpretation, apologies and correct - it required explicit usage of runmqlsr.

| i am not asking how to create listner and assign a port to it. what i am asking is after creating a Qmanager and running the listner using runmqlsr for the portt 4444. what entries i ned to make in /etc/services so that the outside apps can connect to QM using listner. |

Absolutely none. But you have to make sure that runmqlsr is running under an ID that has authorization to the qmgr and queues. Otherwise you might be in for quite some surprises...

It's a good practice because then you know which ports are "reserved" for MQ.
However it is no longer a need with runmqlsr...
