Messages Queues workspace

This workspace provides aggregated statistics about the usage information about the message delivery.

This workspace displays data provided by the Workplace Mail Queues attributes.

Notes:
  • This workspace reports blanks for resource data on the first invocation if PMI data collection is configured for on-demand sampling (that is, if your site set configuration value Resource Data Collection Method to On Demand) or if you have not yet run applications that generate PMI resource data. To report resource data in this workspace after installing and configuring the Data Collector, use the WebSphere® administrative console to set the appropriate PMI instrumentation level.
  • Because of high overhead, the monitoring agent provides on demand sampling by default. To activate PMI monitoring, you must first select this workspace and then select it again later. Each time you select the workspace, it displays the data collected during the interval between selections.
Note: The following WebSphere Application Diagnostics Version 7.1 features do not support the Messages Queues workspace: configuration and links to the Managing Server Visualization Engine from the IBM® Cloud Pak System Software Monitoring Portal.

The predefined workspace contains the following items:

  • Queue Messages bar chart, which displays the number of message in the ready, retry, unprocessed, and dead state in the queue during the sampling interval
  • Workplace Mail Message Queues report, which displays detailed information about the state of messages in each queue
