Roger,
The api crossing exit which comes with WMQ addresses most of your concerns. Have you looked at it ? "Bullock, Rebecca (CSC)" To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: > Subject: Re: Message Tracking Sent by: MQSeries List <[EMAIL PROTECTED] n.AC.AT> 04/29/2004 08:49 AM Please respond to MQSeries List Roger, the only thing I have to say is to agree that you want to include at least part of the actual message data. That way, if the programmer has the wrong msgid or correlid or even ends up with duplicates (if, for example, he doesn't clear these fields before his next put), you stand a chance of finding the actual message based on the data itself. -----Original Message----- From: Roger Lacroix [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 11:48 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Message Tracking All, I have tried to talk my current client into buying a message tracking product but of course they say they don't have the money!?!?! The problem is that the client has a lot of MQ development going on with a lot of newbie MQ/Java developers. And of course the newbie developers keep telling me that MQ lost their messages. This of course is driving me nuts!!! So I figured that I would create an API Exit to log the following: - Queue Name - Date / Time - MsgID - CorrelID - GroupID >From a tracking point of view, I don't think logging the message data is important but what other fields of the MQMD should be logged?? I figure I would use Perl or Java to summarize or correlate the information in the log file. Of course, the script would cross search between MsgID, CorrelID & GroupID for matches. Any comments - thoughts about this.
