Before starting this task, the wsadmin tool must be running.

About this task

Complete the following steps to configure a new WebSphere queue:

Note: In the following examples, code blocks beginning with wsadmin> show code that is entered by the user. Lines that do not begin with wsadmin> show code that has been returned by the console.

Procedure

Identify the parent ID and assign in to a variable. In this example the variable is named v5jmsp.

Using Jacl:

wsadmin>set v5jmsp [$AdminConfig getid "/Cell:mycell/Node:mynode/JMSProvider:WebSphere JMS Provider/"]

Using Jython:

wsadmin>v5jmsp = AdminConfig.getid("/Cell:mycell/Node:myNode/JMSProvider:WebSphere JMS Provider/") 
wsadmin>print v5jmsp

Example output:

"WebSphere JMS Provider(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#builtin_jmsprovider)"

Get required attributes:

Using Jacl:
```
wsadmin>$AdminConfig required WASQueue
```

Using Jython:

wsadmin>print AdminConfig.required('WASQueue')

Example output:

Attribute       Type
name				   String
jndiName			 String

Set up required attributes:

Using Jacl:

wsadmin>set name [list name WASQ1]
wsadmin>set jndi [list jndiName jms/WASQ1]
wsadmin>set wqAttrs [list $name $jndi]

Example output:

{name WASQ1} {jndiName jms/WASQ1}

Using Jython:

wsadmin>name = ['name', 'WASQ1']
wsadmin>jndi = ['jndiName', 'jms/WASQ1']
wsadmin>wqAttrs = [name, jndi]
wsadmin>print wqAttrs

Example output:

[[name, WASQ1], [jndiName, jms/WASQ1]]

Create the queue:

Using Jacl:

wsadmin>$AdminConfig create WASQueue $v5jmsp $wqAttrs

Using Jython:

wsadmin>print AdminConfig.create('WASQueue', v5jmsp, wqAttrs)

Example output:

WASQ1(cells/mycell/nodes/mynode|resources.xml#WASQueue_1)

Save the configuration changes.
In a network deployment environment only, synchronize the node.
