Message Manager Performance workspace (z/OS systems only)
The Message Manager Performance workspace is available on z/OS® systems only.
The Message Manager Performance workspace summarizes the rates at which messages are being passed to and retrieved from your monitored z/OS queue managers.
The IBM® MQ Monitoring agent also provides recent and historical versions of this workspace. You can view a recent snapshot of the report data or up to 24 hours of historical data for each workspace component.
Predefined views
The Message Manager Performance workspace includes the following predefined views:
Message Manager Performance This view summarizes the rates at which messages are being passed to and retrieved from your monitored z/OS queue managers. Most of these are measured in terms of the frequency with which certain MQ application programming interface (API) routines are called. From this table you can view the activity history of message managers. This table displays the frequency with which the following MQ operations are performed:
- Queues are opened or closed (MQOPEN and MQCLOSE routines).
- Messages are put on or removed from queues (MQPUT and MQGET routines).
- An MQPUT1 call is used to open a queue, put a message and then close the queue again in a single operation (MQPUT1 routine).
- Object attributes are queried or modified (MQINQ and MQSET routines).
- Subscriptions are registered to certain topics (MQSUB routines).
- Requests on subscriptions are made (MQSUBRQ routines).
- Callbacks are called by MQ when certain events occur (MQCB routines).
- Controlling actions are performed on the object handles opened for a connection (MQCTL routines).
- Status information are retrieved (MQSTAT routines).
- Messages are put on queues, or distribution lists, or to topics.
- Handles are closed independently of MQI calls.
- Message Manager Performance Summary This view shows, as
a bar chart, the frequency with which the following MQI methods have
been called on the selected queue manager:
- MQOPENs
- MQCLOSEs
- MQGETs
- MQPUTs
- MQPUT1s
- MQINQs
- MQSETs
- MQSUBs
- MQSUBRQs
- MQCBs
- MQCTLs
- MQSTATs
- Close handles per second
