In an RDQM configuration each queue manager is active on one of several nodes. This means that tooling such as the MQ Console needs to be able to connect to the queue manager on whichever node it is active. When the MQ Console could only connect to local queue managers in the same installation then customers needed to deploy the MQ web server on each RDQM node, manage multiple web server instances, and connect to the correct instance to administer each queue manager based on which node it was active. If the queue manager failed over to a different node then they needed to log in to a different web server instance before continuing their administrative task.
Now the MQ Console supports remote queue manager connectivity then a much simpler configuration is possible. The customer can run an MQ web server on a separate system and connect to each RDQM queue manager remotely. If their RDQM queue manager has an HA floating IP address then they can use that IP to connect to the queue manager on whichever node it is active. If their RDQM queue manager does not have an HA floating IP, or they need to also support DR configurations, then they can define the various endpoints in their CCDT, or use a network load balancer to target the required node instead.
