Hey everyone,

I am interested in monitoring basic broker activity. Things such as:
- Broker Up/Down
- Broken connection to database
- Execution group not running

No performance and prediction abilities are required at the moment...
I though of monitoring the syslog for BIP messages, but i can't find
documentation specifying the error messages available... can any one direct me to a list containing this info?

And, i would be happy to receive more suggestion about monitoring the broker, how and what, and you advise of products to do that...


Thanks.

P.S. - MQ monitoring is covered throughout the enterprise.

You should look at accounting and statistics, and subscribing to broker internal publications.

There isn't exactly a list of the possible BIP error messages in the documentation. The Info Center contains a searchable page that will give you one BIP message, not all BIP messages.

But the messages folder on your mqsi install root has a messages.html file that is a list of all BIPs.

If you have a tight budget you could write your own shell scripts to check Broker processes ( and/or execution groups, database, and whatever other integration application processes) and report via e-mail or message to service center if any of the required processes are not running. This can be scheduled via crontab or whatever batch scheduling apps you have (e.g. control-m) to run at regular intervals during the day as required. This is really not too difficult to implement.

But knowing that there are x number of DataFlowEngine processes doesn't tell you a single thing about whether your flows are working or not.
