MQTT preferences

The WebSphere Message Broker monitoring extension is capable of working with the two configuration options of IBM Integration Bus (with or without MQ).

When working in the "without MQ" configuration scenario, qpwmb can be configured to connect via MQTT, which requires an MQTT server accessible to both IBM Integration Bus and the WebSphere Message Broker monitoring extension. The information received via MQTT is the same received from the queue manager, so nothing needs to change on the BMM Server.

These preferences should be set in eaa.xml using the Using the agentpref utility to configure agentless monitoring
