Removing an MQSeries Client from DOS

Delete all the files in the directory where you installed the MQSeries client, and then remove the directory.

Installing on HP-UX

To install an MQSeries client on an HP-UX system you use the MQSeries Client CD-ROM supplied as part of the MQSeries product.

Note: If you plan to install an MQSeries client and server on the same machine, see ªInstalling MQSeries Clients on the Same Machine as the Serverº on page 57.

The MQSeries client is installed into the /opt/mqm directory. This cannot be changed.

Before Installation

Before you can install an MQSeries client on your HP-UX system you:

vMust create a group with the name mqm.

vMust create a user ID with the name mqm.

vAre recommended to create and mount a /var/mqm file system, or /var/mqm, /var/mqm/log, and /var/mqm/errors file systems.

If you create separate partitions, the following directories must be on a local file system:

±/var/mqm

±/var/mqm/log

You can choose to NFS mount the /var/mqm/errors and /var/mqm/trace directories to conserve space on your local system.

After installation, this user ID (mqm) owns the directories and files that contain the resources associated with the product. This group and user must be defined for any machine on which the MQSeries software is to be installed, whether the machine is a client or a server machine.
