To start JMS Postcard, run the JmsPostcard shell script.
The sign-on dialog has an Advanced checkbox. Check this to see the extended dialog where you can choose which queue manager is used by the Postcard. Note:
If you have no queue managers at all, or just the default configuration, then the checkbox will be disabled.
Depending upon what queue managers and clusters you have, the checkbox and options will be in one of various combinations of enabled, disabled, and preselected.
This is the easiest way to use Postcard, and also the simplest way to use Postcard between two (or more) computers - make sure default configuration is installed on all the computers, and that one of them holds the repository and all the others use the first one as their repository; thus they are all in the same cluster.
Use the drop-down list to choose any one of your local queue managers. If you want to send postcards between two queue managers (on one or more computers) this way, then it is up to you to make sure that either:-
the queue managers are in the same cluster (for more information about clusters, see the Queue Manager Clusters book)
you have created explicit connections between the queue managers.
