I am looking for a tool to keep track of all the messages going through MQ. I would like to :
- Store these message in a DB
- Search and View them
- Do some Event correlation between messages
- Be able to resend these messages on the Bus.
- Message content could be any Text base format not just xml
I am not looking for a full blown ‘Business Activity Monitoring’ tool but more a simple Event repository….
Any suggestions on a product (free or not) would be welcome.
Thank you |

Look at MQSoftware's QNami and HP's TransactionVision.

You also could have a look at our ReQuest for WMQ product. This product analyses the WMQ recovery logs (so your messages must be persistent), and can not only produce reports (in XML format, or written to a DB), but also selectively replay or recover messages...
Because ReQuest works directly from the logs, there's actually no need for any application instrumentation, and no run time overhead.
More info can be found on Cressida's website.

...and the MQPUT(1) and/or MQGET must under syncpoint. If the putter puts directly to a queue where the getter is already waiting with an outstanding MQGET with wait, and syncpoint is not used, I'm pretty sure the logs are bypassed and the message is passed in memory, even persistent messages. A performance improvement introduced in late MQ 5.3 or MQ 6.0.

I think Peter's statement is indeed correct, but only when the putter and getter are running on the same queue manager. We document this situation as a limitation (but I can't remember ever having run into a situation where this actually has been reported).

You might want to have a look at QueueZee too (http://www.AngusSoft.co.uk) - it's free and I'm sure there's something it provides you could find useful
