HI,
I need to monitor all my MQ servers from a single window using any MQ Admin tools.
Can anyone suggest any IBM preferred tool thru which i could configure all the external MQ servers from a single point of contact. |

MQExplorer or MO71 should do that, too.

The monitoring tool I was looking is not to get any kind of reports or a day to day health check related tool.
I'm looking for an MQ Admin client which would be a single window view for all my MQ servers. |

IBM Tivoli. Or Omegamon, or whatever it's called these days.

Then other option I had given too i.e. IBM Tivoli.

To view all the MQ Components at Server "MQ Explorer" is not bad.
There is a slight difference between 'to administer MQ Components at servers' AND 'to administer MQ Servers'.
Give a think shot.

For the admin yes, for monitoring... it's getting a little bit more difficult.
But you can probably use any IBM accredited monitoring tool vendor that suits your needs... including IBM's Tivoli monitoring flagship product...

IBM Tivoli. Or whatever your site already uses to administer servers. An MQ Server is no different to a database server, except in what it runs.

There are somethings you can only do and see by being directly on the machine with the QMGR.
Like start, stop, change stanzas see the error logs, view FDCs and other things I'm not recalling at this moment.
MQ Explorer is fine and offered as a Support Pac. Just be sure to secure the channels you intend to use. Unless you like others 'helping' you. |
