				| Hi  gurus 
 the max queue depth for MQ V5.3 on Window and AIX is 640,000 messages per queue.  Please tell me what is the max queue depth for MQ V6 on Windows XP and AIX ?
 
 Thanks Beth

				| Guru, Thanks you for your reply.
 Would you please tell me if the maxdepth can be set as high as
 999,999,999 ? (according to the link)
 
 I am sorry I don't have MQ 6 installed yet so I cannot verify this
 Thanks again
 Beth
 
 
 
 Maximum queue depth (MAXDEPTH)
 Specifies the maximum number of messages allowed on the queue. However, other factors can cause the queue to be treated as full; for example, it appears to be full if there is no storage available for a message.
 
 Note: If this value is subsequently reduced by using the CHGMQMQ command, any messages that are on the queue remain intact even if they cause the new maximum to be exceeded.
 
 The possible values are:
 
 *SYSDFTQ
 The value of this attribute is taken from the system default queue of the specified type.
 depth-value
 Specify a value ranging from 0 through 999 999 999.

				| Though clearly there needs to be enough space to hold them all, so you could run out of resource before you hit the limit! _________________

				| And as the link implies, it is up to you to ensure that there is enough disk space available to hold all the messages up to that depth at the maximum message size. _________________
