You need a monotoring tool to do that.
Refer to the forum "Websphere MQ Monitoring and Tools" |

You really need the sender and receiver app to create these logs.
This is the only way to tell you what was really received and processed.
Enjoy

There is one more option if you palce a channel exit(msgexit) and then capture all the incoming and outgoing message. Capture the copy of message with the help of exit and send them to a queue and then log it to a database.

Note that this will only record the messages going past, not what's being processed.
Also be aware that a channel exit like this will have a performance impact, and will kill your system if badly written or hits a problem.

1) This is my test environment so performance is not an issue
2) MirrorQ works only on one queue and NOT on a channel
3) i have a program which works on channel and giving a log of all incoming and outgoing messages but that is not stable and reliable, so looking for another good program
but no success
Anyone, MQ Guru, do you know any program, i am sure there will be many but i dont know anyone of them...
please help me. |

If you've produced your own exit (which is the only thing you can run on a channel) that's about as good as you're likely to get. You're better off trying to make it more stable.
People don't produce this sort of thing typically, for the reasons fjb_saper & myself have mentioned. At best it's irrelevant (because it's not a true log), at worst it brings the system to it's knees.

But, of course, it's a sample only and completely unsupported.
And it will only actually run for as many queues as you can fit into a single namelist. Unless you create multiple instances of the exit with different namelists.
And it does absolutely no good at all to copy messages onto a queue without a process already planned and ready to go to handle those messages.
MirrorQ is not a substitute for a valid message auditing solution - nor should it be a part of one (because it's unsupported).
