Running IBM MQ Container Image with Custom Configuration and Creating JMS JNDI Bindings
3 min readMay 14, 2021
Recently I need to test some J2EE integration work on IBM MQ. Since it is for testing purposes I run it as a container instead of the full-blown VM.
Preparing a custom QMSC file
Other than the default MQ settings, I need to use my custom queue definition and security controls. In the MQ container, this is achieved by defining a custom MQSC file and put it into the specific /etc/mqm
directory.
