Remote queue

A remote queue is a local queue belonging to a queue manager on another machine. A remote queue definition is a proxy for a local queue belonging to a queue manager on another machine. This remote queue definition exchanges messages with the remote local queue.

You can access remote queues either synchronously or asynchronously. If there is a local definition of the remote queue, the mode of access is based on the definition. In this case, the mode of access may be either synchronous or asynchronous. However, if there is no local definition, queue discovery occurs. WebSphere MQ Everyplace retrieves the characteristics (authentication, cryptography, and compression) from the real queue, and forces the mode of access to synchronous.
