Deploying the BIG-IP LTM with MQ

In this Deployment Guide there is no reference to MQ QM Managers, but instead MQ Message Broker instances. In this case, I assume we could configure QMGRs in the place of the Message Brokers?

 

Do you have a solid example of how this may have worked with MQ Queue Managers and what versions of MQ were used?

 

Thanks

    I've done MQ load-balancing for clients. But at a pretty simplistic level. Mainly front-ending MQ with LTM so that multiple LTM's can then be front-ended with GTM

     

    (GTM front-ending LTM's is way less hassle than front-ending lots of 3rd party servers).

    I'm a bit late to the party, but am researching the same scenairo. Load balancing between queue managers NOT Message Broker. Considering the lack of responses is this NOT feasible?
