Adding Additional Coordination Queue Managers in IBM MQ Explorer

Once one has a coordination queue manager in the "Managed File Transfer" folder of the IBM MQ Explorer (with the FTE add-on of course), how is it that one adds additional Coordination Queue managers? I don't see an "Add Coordiation Qmgr" option from the Managed File Transfer folder ... ?

And so following the resolution of a PMR, we find that my implementation of the FTE plugin for MQ explorer at v 7.0.1.2, was such that it precluded the detection of additional coordination queue managers. I deployed the v7.5 version, and EVERYTHING works fine now. Case closed.

You have to create a coordination queue manager using fteSetupCoordination command from command line. 

fteSetupCoordination.cmd -coordinationQMgr QM_COORD2 -coordinationQMgrHost localhost -coordinationQMgrPort 3099 -coordinationQMgrChannel MQSVRCHN

This command will create a .mqsc file under config directory. That mqsc file must be run against the new coordination queue manager. For example:

runmqsc QM_COORD2 < C:\MQFTE\IBM\WMQFTE\config\QM_COORD2\QM_COORD2.mqsc

Start MQ Explorer, you will see QM_COORD2 as another coordination queue manager under Managed File Transfer node. Note that there can be only one coordination queue manager active at any point. Hence QM_COORD2 queue manager will be shown as inactive. You will need to disconnect the active coordination queue manager and then make the QM_COORD2 active. To make it active, just right click on the QM_COORD2 and click on Connect short menu.
