I am trying to get queue depth for remote IBM MQ using PowerShell script/commands. Seems it is not working correctly, please help. 

{
$myremoteconns = New-WMQQmgrConnDef -Name T.test.TEST.QM1 -Hostname abcd_testhost01 -Port 1111 -Channel T.test.MQMQ.TESTCHN

$qm = Get-WMQQueueManager -Connections $myremoteconns | where {$_.Name -like 'T.test.TEST.QM1'}

Error New-WMQQmgrConnDef the term 'New-WMQQmgrConnDef' is not recognized

Already installed WebSphere MQ - Windows PowerShell Library from below.

This error means that PowerShell cannot find this cmdlet. You need to check if the module you installed is properly found by PowerShell. Check this first:

Get-Module -ListAvailable

The result will be like:

PS C:\Users\username\PowerShell> get-module -ListAvailable


    Directory: C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules


ModuleType Version    Name                                ExportedCommands
---------- -------    ----                                ----------------
Script     3.0.1      ImportExcel                         {Import-Html, ConvertFrom-ExcelSheet, PieChart, Import-UPS...}

If you don't find the module on the list you can import it manually using:

Import-Module -Name 'C:\path\to\module.psm1'

In PowerShell (starting at V3) modules should be imported automatically if they are inside on of the path specified in environment variable PSModulePath. You can check its value by using:

$env:PSModulePath

Once you know which folders are included in this variable you can either move the module there or just add another path using

$env:PSModulePath = $env:PSModulePath + ";c:\path\to\module"

This will work for current session. If you want to modify it for all session you can add the line below to PowerShell profile.

  • Hi Robdy , I imported all required modules and now got new error . {+ CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (:) [Get-WMQQueueManager], ParameterBindingValidationException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentValidationError,WebSphereMQ.GetWMQQueueManager} – sachin bhomale Jun 20 '18 at 04:44
  • That means you're providing incorrect data to the cmdlet. Check the documentation and `Get-Help` and [this website](https://hursleyonwmq.wordpress.com/2007/12/10/getting-your-websphere-mq-objects-in-the-powershell-next-gen-command-line/). Your question is now related to specific module, which I'm not using so it'd be difficult to resolve it for me. – Robert Dyjas Jun 20 '18 at 06:35
  • Thanks Robdy , I already checked same website and trying to figure out my mistake . Anyone else with MQ information , please help – sachin bhomale Jun 20 '18 at 12:42

  • I'd suggest you to ask a new question (you may want to have a look at [this article](https://stackoverflow.com/help/how-to-ask) as comments are not really good place to look for answers. By the way, if you feel that my answer resolved your issue (with `Error New-WMQQmgrConnDef the term 'New-WMQQmgrConnDef' is not recognized`) feel free to mark it as [accepted answer.
