Error Log workspace (distributed systems only)

The Error Log workspace is available on distributed systems only.

The Error Log table workspace provides you with the latest MQ error log data from the selected monitored queue manager. Use the information in this workspace to resolve queue manager problems.

Error log information is only available if it is being collected from the queue manager. Error log monitoring is enabled by default but can be disabled using the ERRLOGCYCLE parameter of the SET MANAGER monitoring option.

Remember: Make sure that the user ID that is used to start the IBM® MQ Monitoring agent has appropriate authorities for error logs and has access to the directories where the error logs are stored. Otherwise, the Error Log workspace displays no data.

Predefined views

The Error Log workspace includes the following predefined views:

  • Error Log This view displays the latest MQ error log data from the selected monitored queue manager. Only error log entries recorded after the monitoring agent has started are displayed.
  • Take Action Use the Take Action view to issue commands to the monitored queue manager.
