Configuring error reporting for high availability

Certain events in a high availability configuration cause messages to be written to the IBM® MQ system log. You can write these messages to an appliance log target.

High availability messages are written to the system log, rather than individual queue manager logs, because notifications are made even when the queue manager is not running. You can interrogate the log to retrieve high availability messages, and set up log targets to receive messages (see IBM MQ diagnostic message services and Appliance log targets).

For a guide to interpreting high availability messages, see HA notification examples.
