How to check MQ is available?

Hi guys,

How to check MQ is available through batch job? Please let me know.

Your query is not clear. If you mean to ask whether or not MQ is available at your site (as an optional add on to z/OS, not all sites purchase MQ for z/OS), you would not use a batch job -- you would ask your site support group. If you mean to ask about the availability of a particular MQ queue, you would use the batch interface to inquire. The particular format for the query will be in the MQ manual which IBM makes available to you through their web interface, so you need to find the manuals and start reading if this is what you want to know. This is a HELP forum, not a READ-THE-MANUALS-FOR-YOU forum.
