Suspend Queue Manager Cluster

The Suspend Queue Manager Cluster (MQCMD_SUSPEND_Q_MGR_CLUSTER) command informs other queue managers in a cluster that the local queue manager is not available for processing, and cannot be sent messages. Its action can be reversed by the Resume Queue Manager Cluster (MQCMD_RESUME_Q_MGR_CLUSTER) command.

Optional parameters

CommandScope (MQCFST)
Command scope (parameter identifier: MQCACF_COMMAND_SCOPE). This parameter applies to z/OS only.
Specifies how the command is executed when the queue manager is a member of a queue-sharing group. You can specify one of the following:
  • blank (or omit the parameter altogether). The command is executed on the queue manager on which it was entered.
  • a queue manager name. The command is executed on the queue manager you specify, providing it is active within the queue sharing group. If you specify a queue manager name other than the queue manager on which it was entered, you must be using a queue-sharing group environment, and the command server must be enabled.

The maximum length is MQ_QSG_NAME_LENGTH.
