Hi,
I'm in the middle of a 6.1 to 9.0 conversion. In the 6.1 environment there is a construction setup that gives a browser page about the current deployed flows and message sets.
This is done by adding a PassThrough node in every flow, giving it a name like "Version: 1.1, Build: 30-12-2005"
At retrieval time, the ESQL does a SQL select statement from the Broker database and retrieves this info and creates a XML page with it. In the browser this XML page is processed with XSLT to present a nice page.
Ok, nice, but not possible with 9.0, there is no SQL database anymore to quiry ...
IMHO, if you work with something like CVS/Subversion and have good procedures, you don't need this. However, it's a requirement, a report facility that gives the deployed versions realtime information from the production runtime.
Any suggestions to setup something like this in a IIB 9.0 environment ?
Kind Regards, Herbert |

Have you looked at the output of an
mqsilist <brokername> -r
Or whichever option it is that can give you everything. If I recall there is version information available there. (I might be wrong though)
It may mean that the main flow 'Version' Property has to be correctly filled in.
Quite easy to test though. _________________ WMQ User since 1999

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions. |

No, you're right

It does.
You can of course automate it being filled in with the $MQSI construct _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

You can also access the same information via the CMP Java API. _________________ Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way you're a mile away, and you have their shoes too. |

thanks for the answers.
Indeed, properties at the flow level in combination with the mqsilist command seems a simple solution.
mqsilist IB9NODE -d2 -r ( -d2 is the highest level of info you can get. )
There are 3 properties at flow level you can set in the toolkit: "Version, Short description, Long description".
My test results are:
- Only "Version" and "Long description" are returned with mqsilist
- CR/LF's in the "Long description" are returned as spaces. |
