Starting and stopping a broker on Windows

Run the appropriate command to start or stop a broker.

  1. Open the IBM® Integration Bus command console. When you open the console, it sets up the environment that you need to run the IBM Integration Bus commands.

    If you prefer, you can run the install_dir/bin/mqsiprofile command to set up the environment.

  2. To start a broker, enter the following command on the command line:
    mqsistart IB9NODE

    Substitute your own broker name for IB9NODE.

    You can also request that the broker queue manager is started as a Windows service. Refer to Starting a WebSphere MQ queue manager as a Windows service.

    The broker and its associated queue manager are started. The command initiates the startup of the broker's Windows service.

    Check the Application Log in the Event Viewer to ensure that the broker has initialized successfully. The log contains messages about verification procedures; if all tests are successful, only an initial start message is recorded. If one or more verification tests are unsuccessful, the log also includes messages that provide details of the tests that have failed. If errors have been reported, review the messages and take the suggested actions to resolve these problems.

  3. To stop a broker, enter the following command on the command line:
    mqsistop IB9NODE

    Substitute your own broker name for IB9NODE.

    You can also request that the broker queue manager is stopped by this command. Refer to Stopping a WebSphere MQ queue manager when you stop a broker.
