Hello All,
I have 2 queue managers each consisting around 50 queue each. There are a lot of applications using them. I want to know the total number of messages processed by each queue manager at the end of the day, and also the total size of each message added together.
Please let me know if you have any solution to this....
Cheers!
Avi

Hello Gayathri,
Thanks for your reply, but I am looking for a solution using built in MQ functionality. There is one way that I can think of, and that is writing a trigger so that before any message is processed, it is written in a text file. Then its not that hard to measure the number and size.
I was wondering if someone has implemented a solution like this (or different), using MQ in-built functions.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
br,
Avi

| There are QUEUE STATS with MQ V6 which should provide what you need, otherwise use one of the MQ exits to collect the information. |

Triggering fires after a message is delivered to a queue. What you're describing is exit programming and that's not for the inexperienced or the faint of heart. If it works, you need to think carefully about the additional processing you're adding to each and every message; this can quickly pile up to be a significant drain on throughput with only a little carelessness.
If it doesn't work it will bring your queue manager to it's knees quickly, in the worst case scenario it will reduce your queue manager to a small smouldering heap of fragments.

There is no built-in solution for assembling this information.
All of the monitoring tools use built-in functionality that generates information, and then assemble it themselves.
Use a monitoring tool! Don't bother writing your own.
Really!

Ok. Then guess we need to consider a monitoring tool.
Thanks a lot for your replies....

| Have you read my reply? Have you looked at the queue statistics available with WMQ V6? Have you read the IBM manuals? |

MQ V 5.3 is out of support -- you need to upgrade!

Probably easier & cheaper to upgrade than to develop an alternate solution.
IBM add these new features into the product because customers need them (as you are demonstrating!). |
