Create TCP/IP Listeners in the Remote Adminstration Wizard

If you have WebSphere MQ queue managers on your computer from a previous installation, then the installation program must migrate those queue managers.

On a previous panel you selected one or more of those queue managers to be enabled for remote administration by Version 5.3 queue managers by creating the necessary channel.

For the channel to work, each queue manager must also have a TCP/IP listener. This list shows the queue managers you selected for remote administration that do not already have a TCP/IP listener.

Select each one in turn, and enter a TCP/IP port number.

If you want to run more than one queue manager with a listener, you must use a different port number for each listener. Specify a number different to the default 1414.

Note: On the remote computer that will administer this queue manager, this same port number must be specified in the Show/Hide Queue Manager dialog. For more information, see the Showing and hiding queue managers in WebSphere MQ Explorer topic in the WebSphere MQ Explorer help.

Check that each queue manager in the list has a port number next to it before clicking Next. (If any port number is unspecified, a listener will not be created for that queue manager).
