Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Relates a queue of type remote queue (Remote Queue Manager) and the Queue Manager it is representing. This is a special purpose Remote Queue that is a remote for Queue Manager (instead of a remote queue). For Queue Managers QM1 and QM2, it is possible to set up a Remote Queue on QM1 named RQM2 which is a remote of QM2. Any MQ command issued to RQM2 is passed on to QM2 for execution. |

IBM MQ Channel |
1..* |
Indicates that the MQ Channel is a member of the MQ Queue Manager Cluster. When a queue or channel is defined in any Queue Manager, it is possible (but not necessary) to specify of which MQ cluster this queue is a member. This is useful when very specific configurations are required, for example, when a queue is a member of a cluster but the Queue Manager is not a member of that cluster. This link is used to identify these special configurations. |
