Could not find SYSTEM.BROKER service with WebSphere MQ v7.0

I'm new trying to configure MQ service following this tutorial but when I tried to alter the service SYSTEM.BROKER it says that it cannot be found. What possibly am I doing wrong?

I'm using Version 7.0 of WebSphere MQ.

Note that the article applies to WMQ v6.0 whereas in v7.0 there is no pub/sub broker. In v7.0 and higher, pub/sub is natively supported as part of the queue manager.

After a quick review of the tutorial, I believe that you can safely skip all of Step C: Set Up Pub/Sub. This step creates the queues that the V6 pub/sub broker required and then started it. V7 neither requires these queues nor has a separate pub/sub broker component to start.

You can actually see this in action in the last 45 seconds or so of this video where a new QMgr is created and then, without any additional setup, a message is published and received with a subscriber.

So skip Step C and continue on with the tutorial and you should be OK.
