Useful JMS-related Glassfish and OpenMq commands

Below are a few Glassfish JMS admin commands and some useful OpenMQ commands (to query, purge and list) which can be be used in scripts to perform tasks as opposed to performing the same procedures via the Glassfish or OpenMQ admin consoles:


Glassfish JMS Commands

To clear previous JMS setup

asadmin delete-jms-resource <JMS_TOPIC_RESOURCE_NAME>
asadmin delete-jms-resource <JMS_TOPIC_CONNECTION_FACTORY_NAME>


To create the JMS Topic Connection factory

asadmin create-jms-resource --restype=javax.jms.TopicConnectionFactory --property transaction-support=LocalTransaction --description="JMS Topic Connection Factory." <JMS_TOPIC_CONNECTION_FACTORY_NAME>


To create the JMS Topic resource

asadmin create-jms-resource --restype=javax.jms.Topic --description="JMS Topic" <JMS_TOPIC_RESOURCE_NAME>


To list JMS resources

asadmin list-jms-resources


OpenMQ Commands

Query the JMS resources

imqcmd query bkr  -b <host>:<port> -passfile <password file> -u <user name>

Purge the Topic (or Queue)

imqcmd purge dst -f -passfile <password file> -n <topic name> -t t -b <host>:<port> -u <user name>

List the message rate and packet flow

imqcmd list dst -passfile <password file> -b <host>:<port> -u <user name>

An example output from the list command would be:
