IBM CICS Explorer Quick Reference

IBM’s MQ Explorer is a free graphical configuration tool built on Eclipse which enables you to remotely explore and configure all WebSphere MQ objects and resources, including Java Message Service (JMS), and publish and subscribe. MQ Explorer can remotely connect to queue managers on any supported platform – enabling your entire messaging backbone to be viewed, explored and altered from one place. MQ Explorer runs on Windows and Linux (x86 and x86_64) systems. It does not need to be deployed with a WebSphere MQ client or server, and can be installed on as many machines as you require.
