Hi ,
I need to develop a small program to check daily statistics /weekly
how many messages passes thru our MQ netwrok..Contribution(put/get from each application to specific Queue>.The time taken by MQ to despatch message from source to destination Queue.
I am looking what all specific commands useful in MQv6<Accounting & statistics commands> or any other way to get the above info reqularly.

Presently we are not using any tools.

Thanks in advance.

To get the number of messages processed by a queue use an MQAI program to execute the MQCMD_RESET_Q_STATS command on each queue. This will give you the MQIA_TIME_SINCE_RESET, MQIA_HIGH_Q_DEPTH, MQIA_MSG_ENQ_COUNT and MQIA_MSG_DEQ_COUNT. I run something similar at my site using cron to execute it every 15min or so and insert the data into a database. There's some good samples at http://www-304.ibm.com/jct09002c/isv/tech/sampmq.html. I haven't looked at the stats provided by 6.0 but I understand they are provided in the form of an event message so you will need to write an event monitor to decode these. There's also a plug-in for MQ Explorer at http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&context=SSFKSJ&dc=D400&uid=swg24011617&loc=en_US&cs=UTF-8&lang=en&rss=ct171websphere if you haven't seen it already.

It may or may not be easier to write a program that uses PCF messages rather than the MQAI. I suppose it depends on which seems easier to the person writing the program.

There's a support pack that provides handy-dandy PCF classes for Java.

The Perl module for MQ (available through cpan, troublesome to build on windows) does an excellent job of hiding basically everything about PCF messages from programs. It will also handle event messages.

Thanks Jeff & battie..
One more thing:

one of the o/p from Statistics & accounting messge data:

OpenCount: [0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
OpenFailCount: [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]
CloseCount: [0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]

I just need to know, what 0 & 1.. means..why its in brackets...what does it significane..how to intrepret that values?

This array represents values for different types of MQ objects.
