Use the QueueManager custom resource to deploy a queue manager onto a Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform cluster using the Red Hat OpenShift web console. This task should be completed by a project administrator
Before you begin
Log in to your Red Hat OpenShift cluster web console. You will need to select an existing Project (namespace) to use, or create a new one.
If this is the first time deploying a queue manager into this Red Hat OpenShift project, then follow the steps for Preparing your Red Hat OpenShift project for IBM MQ.
Procedure
