1)) To remove it completely from the cluster issue the following command on the repository queue manager and from wherever else you want to remove.
>> RESET CLUSTER(MYCLUSTER) QMID(string) ACTION( FORCEREMOVE ) You can Get the QMID using the command >> DISPLAY CLUSQMGR(MYCLUSTER) ALL This will display the QManager ID with which it is recognized in the cluster internally. 2)) I don't know this but let me know when you get the answer. 3)) MQExplorer is just a window to your MQ Setup. So whatever is the results from the RUNMQSC command, same should be the behavior with the MQExplorer. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ruzi R" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2003 1:33 AM Subject: Some cluster problems/questions > I would very much appreciate your responses to the > following questions.
