AMQSBLST: Try it for load testing in MQ

AMQSBLST: Try it.

There are lots of good sample programs, one of my favorites is AMQSBLST. It's very easy to use and is a great multipurpose tool. I use it for testing, demonstrations, and proof of concept.   Almost every time I want to test a function of WebSphere MQ I use Blast.

It's almost foolproof, however there is one thing that you need to remember.  The order of input parms are queue manager, and then queue, which is just the opposite of most of the sample programs.

Here are the parameters for Blast:
