# Update a Message Queue

You can change the queue name, message type, and/or queue description using the following command:

`swadm update_queue` `queue_id``|` `queue_name``` `new_name``` `message_type``` `queue_description`

where:

| • | `queue_id` is the unique identifier for the queue. You can find a queue’s identifier using the show_queues command.

| • | `queue_name` is the descriptive alphanumeric name for the queue.

| • | `new_name` is the new name to be used for this queue. If you want to leave the existing name unchanged, use a hyphen ‘-’.

| • | `message_type` is used to identify the message type. This value must be either Local (for local messages), or a hyphen ‘-’ (to leave the value unchanged).

| • | `queue_description` specifies the physical database table that holds the queue. If you want to leave the existing name unchanged, use a hyphen ‘-’.

See the description of this parameter under the add_queue command for a full description of the syntax and requirements for this parameter.

## Examples

| 1. | This example (for Windows/SQL Server) points the queue BGMBOX3 to use a different physical queue, sw_db_bgqueue5 owned by swpro (in the current database used by iProcess Engine). The queue’s current name and message type are left unchanged.

`swadm update_queue BGMBOX3 - - 0003:swpro.sw_db_bgqueue5`

| 2. | This example renames the queue BGMBOX3 to BGMBOX5. The queue will continue to use its existing message type and physical queue.

`swadm update_queue BGMBOX3 BGMBOX5 - -`
