Event Archive attributes

Use the Event Archive attributes to view the archived IBM MQ events that are reported to a queue manager. By default, historical data collection is defined for this attribute group, but is not distributed to any agents so no data will be collected unless distribution is defined. This attribute group is eligible for use with Tivoli Data Warehouse. If you enable historical data collection for this attribute group, use Tivoli Data Warehouse to store historical data and set up the Summarization and Pruning Agent if possible. Otherwise, the amount of event data might be large. Event Archive is a multiple-instance attribute group. You cannot mix these attributes with attributes of any other multiple-instance group.
Tip: When you enable historical data collection for this attribute group, you can use the Filter tab in the Historical Collection Configuration window to specify the types of events that are necessary for archival. Using the event type filter can avoid all events being collected historically, which might result in a large number of event records. For example, to archive configuration events to maintain an audit log of configuration changes to queue managers, define the Event column filter to collect only the four types of events, Configuration_Create_Object, Configuration_Change_Object, Configuration_Delete_Object, and Configuration_Refresh_Object. It is also possible to set up multiple historical collections on this same attribute group in case they have different requirements for different event type filters.

Event User ID The user ID that issued the command or call that generated the event. This attribute is not displayed on the portal by default. To display it, create a query to customize the workspace.

Internal EventID The internal identifier that is assigned to the event. The valid format is an alphanumeric string of up to 8 characters.

Origin Node The IBM MQ Monitoring agent-assigned name of the node where the data for the queue manager originates.

On z/OS systems, this name takes the form of qmgr:smfid:MQESA, where qmgr is the name of the queue manager and smfid is the z/OS system or SMF ID.

On distributed systems, this name takes the form of qmgr::MQ. If you used the SET AGENT command to set the host ID value, this name takes the form of qmgr:hostid:MQ. The valid format is an alphanumeric string of up to 128 case-sensitive characters.

Reporting Host Name The name of the host that reported this event. This host is not necessarily the host where the event occurred. On z/OS systems, this is the SMF ID. The valid format is an alphanumeric string of up to 48 case-sensitive characters.

Reporting Qmgr Name The name of the queue manager that reported this event. This queue manager is not necessarily the queue manager where the event occurred). The valid format is an alphanumeric string of up to 48 case-sensitive characters.

Resource Name The name of the IBM MQ resource (channel or queue) where the event occurred. The valid format is an alphanumeric string of up to 256 case-sensitive characters.

Sequence ID The sequence identifier of the event details when the details about an event are too many and must be split into several rows.

XML Event Details Event parameter details that are shown in the form of XML attributes.
