First Configuration of Websphere MQ File Transfer Edition:

Step 1: Create a Coordination Queue Manager in Websphere MQ Explorer, in my case my coordination Queue Manager is called FTE_COORD

Step 2: Create the Command Queue Manager

Step 3: Start Websphere MQ FTE Installation

Complete all the information for the FTE_COORD Manager in the installation window:

Complete all the information for the FTE_COMMAND Manager in the installation window:

Step 4: After installation you will receive the following message:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\IBM\WMQFTE\config\FTE_COORD\FTE_COORD.mqsc has been created.
Ensure this file has been run against the coordination queue manager FTE_COORD before attempting file transfers.This can be done by redirecting the contents of the file FTE_COORD.mqsc into a runmqsc session.

Navigate to the path above in the command window and enter the following command:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\IBM\WMQFTE\config\FTE_COORD>runmqsc FTE_COORD < FTE_COORD.mqsc

The mqsc script will create the FTE System Queues, Topics, namelists,

Step 5: Verify that the following system Queues has been created:

Step 6: Connect MQFTE Coordination Queue Manager by right clicking FTE_COORD and selecting ‘Connect’

Step 7: A successful connect will look like the following:

You are now ready to create your first Agent to send files from a source to destination.
