The queue manager can be configured to record such actions. You'll find a number of discussions on this and alternative stratergies in this forum.

Personally, I prefer to have security set up appropriately so that no unauthorized changes can be made rather than recording when they happened.

You want to know what actions were performed ONLY by the Explorer? Not by batch scripts? Not by interactive MQSC commands?

My suggestion will of course record all changes by all methods. If you're just trying to monitor MQExplorer usage you'll need to find an alternative method.

Also you'll need to question why you're doing that.

I'm always after clarity. Well, most of the time. OK, some of the time.

Yes, I agree, is best avoided.
I want to get all kinds of records, not only the changes made using the explorer.
This information is recorded in any log?

You can enable events, which will cause event messages to be put to so-called instrumentation event queues.

No, you'll have to configure the queue manager to record them, then develop a way to extract that information into the log you want.

IIRC there's a support pac for that.

IMHO you're still better off fixing the security.
