If the connection has been successfully opened, a node with the name of the queue manager is added to the tree view.
In the right pane of the window (Detail View) the "QueueManagerInfo" tab shows information about the queue manager by reading the queue manager internal attributes and calling the methods of the API. Methods are displayed with brackets ( "()" ) in the "Attribute" column of the table in the tab.
For a description about the attributes please check the MQ Series manual.
"Disconnect" closes the connection of the queue manager that is selected in the tree view. The node is removed from the tree view.
