Hi
We have a MQ server running on Solaris. While we are doing test with client application, beside of tracing the client application, we also want to check on the server side. For example, how it get the request or if the client application hit the server or not.
Where I can find such a log? Is there any tool or command to do that?
I only find Qmanager log under /var/mqm/log/QMGR/. The log file there is unreadable.
Thanks. |

Have you looked at strmqtrc command. You can use -t api option to get the tracing for MQI calls.

To add some clarification... the log is the place where MQ logs it's internal stuff and is unreadable!
For errormessages check /var/mqm/errors and /var/mqm/qmgrs/QMGRname/errors
To see system error messages related to MQ/MQSI on UNIX use dmesg (this is by heart...)

....however if you really need to know what happened in the QM, re persistent messages and/or transaction processing, you can use 'dmpmqlog' to make it a bit less unreadable. |

Hi Jason,
Thanks for your reply.
I tied the command and got below message. Does it mean anything?
| Code: |
dmpmqlog -m QMT1
AMQ7701: DMPMQLOG command is starting.
AMQ7005: The queue manager is running.
AMQ7716: DMPMQLOG command has finished unsuccessfully. |

| Not many hits around this area, and I'm new to this forum, but while I was scanning around I notice that a UK company Cressida, and their product, weird name - request - has some tool that appears to read and translate the MQ logs, dunno if that might help you out some? |
