Queue Messages workspace

Use the Queue Messages workspace to view descriptive information about messages located on the selected queue, and delete selective messages if required.

Predefined views

The Queue Messages workspace includes the following predefined views:

  • Queue Messages This view lists the messages located on the selected queue and provides the following descriptive information about each one:
    • Message type, length, priority, persistence, and expiration time
    • The application that created the message and the time at which it was created
    • The number of times the message was backed out because of an incomplete logical unit of work
    • Whether the message is segmented, part of a group or both, and, if it is part of a group, the GroupID

    Use this view to delete messages or view message headers and the first 4 kilobytes of a message application data.

    Note that if you delete a group or segmented message, all messages that belong to that group or logical message are deleted.

    Note that on IBM® MQ (WebSphere® MQ) for Windows, the processing platform on which the queue manager is running always has a value of MQPL_WINDOWS_NT.

  • Message Log The message log gives you an overview of changes in the status of your monitored system. It also provides information about the status of monitoring agents and other system events. For more information on this view, see Tivoli® Enterprise Portal Help.

For more information on the attributes listed in the tables of this workspace, see Message Summary attributes.
