Hello there ,
We use Linear Logging at our site. I am having to go every week and clean logs manually and change the pointers forward, do an imgage record and check space. I was wondering if there is a tool out there that can be used to resolve this issue and automate it. I am using Qpasa in the top of MQSeries as monitoring tool. Please advice . thanks

See supportpacs MS0L and MS62.

In the past, I have written a shell script to detect messages that indicate when logs are available for deletion. The script will then remove the redundant log files. The shell script can be scheduled to run at regular intervals.

Since WMQ V6 now has linear logger event messages, there's an opportunity for a script/program based on that. (any takers?)

I've recommended MS62 to customers in the past (its a perl script written by an old friend). MS0L is a java/ksh implementation. So I guess it's really an issue of which language you're more comformtable with (but I don't think source code is included for the java version  )
I'm sure others out there are willing to put in their two cents (2^).

MS0L contains the .dll and registry classes for Windows...
Enjoy  |
