I am using WebSphere MQ Administrator for monitoring the queues and there is a column available for display called "put time" and when I show this, it displays an 8 character number, but it doesn't make any sense to me how to interpret what format it's in. As an example, there was a message put on the queue this morning sometime around 6:55 am, yet the put time column shows 03420061. Am I missing something? Is this not what I think it is? The put date column actually shows the date in a yyyymmdd format, so I figured the put time would show the time it was put there.... Help me understand, please. Thanks.

Is a good place to start.

Also, confirm that the clock on the machine that put the message is correct.

OK, then the format is The format used for the time when this field is generated by the queue manager is:

HHMMSSTH
where the characters represent (in order):

HH
hours (00 through 23)
MM
minutes (00 through 59)
SS
seconds (00 through 59)
T
tenths of a second (0 through 9)
H
hundredths of a second (0 through 9)

That makes sense with the fact that we are GMT -6 because that would mean that would have happened at 9:44 pm (last night) and the logs clearly indicate that time. Now that I have the answer to that question, I guess I'm going to have to create another post as this now means we have another problem which I don't have the answer to. I will entitle that on "Queues not showing messages" for reference.
