So, in the tips and tricks that are out there, you will find suggestions on how to set up an MQ queue manager as a systemd service. Here is a quick refinement for a slightly more robust version and the inclusion of an IIB (or ACE) integration node. The following shows the necessary settings and commands (and tests the service). This works with integration nodes that are associated with queue mangers of the same name. (A practice I have personally adopted for a good few years - for numerous good reasons, including the fact that is simple to remember.) These are scant notes, but you should be able to 'read between the lines'.

The plan is that this blog will comprise of a series of articles of a how to nature or solutions to technical problems often encountered in the 'field'. What is the field? Well, broadly, Middleware such as MQ, IIB, ... (possibly others) and its interconnectivity and management with other Middleware or tooling.
