QUESTION NO: 2
An application connects to local queue manager QM1 and puts messages on remote queue QR1. QR1 has been defined with target queue QL2, target queue manager QM2, and XMITQ QM2.
QL2 is defined as a local queue in QM2. For security purposes, another queue manager, QM3, has been created behind a firewall and all messages destined for QL2 on QM2 need to be routed to QL3 on QM3.
Assuming QM2 and QM3 are interconnected, what changes does the system administrator need to make to achieve this without application failure?

A. Alter the QR1 RQMNAME parameter to point to QM3 and RNAME parameter to QL3 with XMITQ QM3. B. Create a remote queue on QM2 pointing to QL3 on QM3. C. Alter the QR1 RQMNAME parameter to point to QM3 and RNAME parameter to QL3 with XMITQ QM2. D. Create an alias queue on QM2 pointing to QL3 on QM3.
