Multi-instance MQ be able of switchover without intervention after a failover

Problema: having 2 mq multi-instances, one as primary and the other as secondary and running in standby mode. When the primary MQ fails, the other one takes over as primary. However, the previous one goes to the status of “running elsewhere” and needs a new start to have a high availability environment again in case of a new failure. This scenario doesn't permit a new switchover without human intervention.

I ask for a changing in the MQ product to activate automatically the MQ with the status  "running elsewhere" after a switchover.

    This is not something that we would put into MQ itself - it would require something "outside" the queue manager such as an independent agent that would itself require managing.

    It ought to be integrated into whatever mechanism that you are using to start the queue manager in the first place. For example, systemd could be configured to restart failed instances automatically.

    The secondary MQ should be "running as standby" always
