Hello,
I was just curious if there are any tools which will give us a statistical record of how many messages has passed through each queue of a particular Queue Manager. Any guidance will be apreciated.
Regards,
Bijish

I would imagine most good monitoring tools allow you to do this.

Under the covers, they can just issue a "RESET QUEUE STATISTICS" command and read the response messages. You could easily hack on of the supportpacs (like MS0B) to do the same thing.

Omegamon (Candle, now IBM) is one of the best tools for monitoring WMQ (Garthner estimation).
"SET QUEUE NAME(*) MGRNAME(QM1) STATISTICS(YES)" work fine for your task.
I use Omegamon more than 3 years and is very happy.
Main property Omegamon is its efficiency, in other words CPU is used minimally and monitoring thus all that is possible.

Hello im Keerthi kumar. I am learning about mq series.

I am trying to do a dummy project of travel agency assigned by my teacher

The requirement is that the taxi agent has an office in different cities By default the taxi booking is confirmed by him .

If taxiagent's system is off we should not put a request message to his queue.

I am using server client configuration for this

is there any means to know if his system is on/off so that if his system is off i am not supposed to put a message into his queue

It is a bit urgent so kindlly respond as early as possible.

waiting for your reply,
thanks and regards
keerthikumar

That is a really bad requirement.

You should not care if the taxi agent is there or not. It is asynchronous messaging, not synchronous!

But your teacher knows what they want.

Are you sure your teacher wants you to use MQ for this?

The only thing you could really do is use PCF to see if the channel is running, or use PCF to see if the transmit queue has messages sitting on it.

This is a very bad idea in real life, though.

Hi Guys,
Thank you so much for all your replies. I forgot to specify I am using WMQ 5.3 on Solaris SunOS 5.8. We use a Win2K with support pack 4.
I would be glad to receive any suggestions on how we can achieve our requirement or any documentation on how to use Omegamon XE. Thank you once again for your support.
Regards,
Bijish

Well....

Technically if you are in a request response scenario you can set your expiration time and let the message expire....


Enjoy

Hummm.... I think Pub/Sub would be the best fit.

- Each agent would be the "Publisher".
- The "topic" would the "region" or "city"
- The taxi (or taxis) would be the "Consumer".

The topics would be non-durable. When taxis are available, they join a topic for the region/city they are in. The first taxi to respond to accept the booking, gets the booking.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents.

Regards,
Roger Lacroix
