Using Windows PowerShell cmdlets for Server Manager to install Message Queuing

Important

When installing Message Queuing (MSMQ) on Windows Server Core, you must install the individual MSMQ features that you require, such as Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) Server Core / MSMQ Services, MSMQ Triggers / Message Queuing Triggers, MSMQ Triggers / Message Queuing Triggers, Routing Service, and MSMQ DCOM Proxy / Message Queuing DCOM Proxy. You do so by specifying the individual features that you require when you run Add-WindowsFeature, as shown in the following example.

Add-WindowsFeature msmq-server, msmq-triggers

Warning

Since Pragmatic General Multicast (PGM) is not supported by Windows Server Core, and Message Queuing relies on PGM for multicasting support, this feature is not supported on Windows Server Core.
