Yes, you're right that Nastel's products do this autodiscovery. With Nastel's MQControl you had to install a Nastel agent on the MQ machine. It would use the normal methods to discover the queue managers on the machine (mqs.ini, registry) and then register with the central server. Alternatively the central server could be set to discover new agents based on a tcpip mask.
With Nastel's AutoPilot you can do all the above plus you can monitor ports on machines so if 1414 were in use you could connect to it etc. HTH, Sam --- Robert Broderick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I do not remember hearing anything from IBM...BUT I > sort of remember that > one of the products (I don't remember which one, eg > Nastel, QPASA, BMS, CA) > does an auto discover in your network.
