				Broker makes binding connections to a local queue manager.
 
 
It does not, without a custom node or a support pack, act in any way as an MQClient application. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |

				Are you putting these two qmgrs in a cluster to load-balance work that is begin done by the broker?  If the answer is YES, then you need two brokers, one running in the same machine as the qmgr itself. _________________ -wayne |

				I mean to say that your question doesn't make sense.
 
 
Do you want to access the queues on the new qmgr in the cluster from within a broker?
 
 
Then create another broker.
 
 
Do you just want another qmgr in the same cluster as your broker?
 
 
Then don't create another broker. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |
