Hi,
I am using MQ ver 6.0.2.7 on SunOS. i am curious to know when was last time MQ was recycled on this. I did a dis qmgr command and found some timestamp on CRDATE and CRTIME. Is this the info. for MQ recycle? if not what is this? |

Not the message logs, the other logs.

Yes, the ones you can read.
No useful information in the ones you can't.

one more suggestion:
When the queue manager starts, a message is written to SYSTEM.ADMIN.QMGR.EVENT queue, look to the timestamp on that message.

But how many times have we sent them to the logs, only to have them look at the ones they can't read?

Queue manager logs |
The qmgr error logs do not reliably contain entries that indicate when it was last recycled because the logs may have rolled over.

Good point. For midrange WMQ (Windoze and UNIX), the product only allows for 3 iterations of qmgr logs. Thus, on the 4th cycle, the oldest log is overwritten.

Only if Start/Stop Events are turned on for the Queue Manager, and then only if nothing else has consumed the Start Event message.

...and those other reasons (queue full, put-inhibited, ...)

The qmgr clears SYSTEM.ADMIN.QMGR.EVENT when it starts. But if the queue is inibithed or being consumed, there is no msg there to check timestamp.  |

No, the QM doesn't clear this queue.
But if there are non persistent messages in the queue and the NP Class of the queue is set to normal, those message will go away upon a QM restart, same as any other queue.
