What to you mean by "follow" ?

Look at the DISPLAY CONN and DISPLAY CHSTATUS commands.

You can see current connections in various ways, I prefer support pac M071.

To see a history of connections, I use the free exit BlockIP2 suitably configured.

Download from here http://mrmq.dk/

Set the security exit & security exit data values on all the relevant channels (SVRCONN ones primarily) to enable it.

It does not audit MQ object changes, however if you secure your QM properly then this is not really an issue.

Use a BlockIp2 ini file something like this to log all access (but not deny it)

Code:

LogPath=/var/mqm/exits64;
LogFormat=N;
LogCount=8;
BlockMqmUsers=N;
AllowBlankUserID=Y;
LogFileName=WMQTRC-;

You can also look at SupportPac MA0Z.

But if you haven't secured your queue manager, it's not clear you can trust that whoever is connecting will tell you who they are or that you can trust what they say.

BlockIP2 can log connections via MQ channels, but it does not log direct binding connections.

Last month has passed. If you do not already have any tracking solution installed and operating, you will not be able to determine who connected in the past.

Very True !
If a store does'nt have a camera setup, how would it come to know who all visited yesterday or days before.

I agree with zpat too.. similar to that Capitalware also gives the facility to log the events ( like connection acceptance / rejection ). But for that you got to setup MQAUSX security exit !!

By default, MQAUSX will have today's log file plus the 9 previous (day) log files. You can configure the 'BackupLogFileCount' to be any value you want. i.e. 30, 60, 90, etc... Note: You need to make sure you have enough disk space.

You can externalize (use crontab) the log file rotation by setting 'RotateLogDaily' to N and use the supplied RotateLog.sh or RotateLog.bat script. You can even extend the script to zip / compress the backup log files to save on space.
