Defining Multiple
TCP Listeners for a MQ Queue Manager (QMGR):
Is it possible to have more than 1 TCP Listeners for a
same QMGR ?
The answer
is: Yes, It is possible.
How it works and When it is implemented?
The TCP
Listener is basically used to bind and connect to a QMGR.
When you
have multiple Application, which needs dedicated connection to a QMGR, to
manage their connections (can or can’t connect) in some case (e.g)
a) Temporarily disconnecting certain
application connection to the QMGR.
b) Isolating the infected application.
c) Isolating a certain applications connection
during migration.
Note:
It is preferred to use unique Queue names
for different Application to avoid any conflicts. Apart from that this
configuring Multiple TCP listeners for a QMGR won’t affect the message flow.
