IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis, Version 1.3.2

IBM MB Insight Pack

The IBM® MB Insight Pack facilitates data ingestion and metadata searches of IBM Message Broker and IBM Integration Bus log files in IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis to enable faster problem identification.

The IBM MB Insight Pack supports searching and indexing of the following:
  • console logs
    • UNIX/Linux: /var/mqsi/components/broker_name/execution_group_uuid\console.txt
    • Windows: workpath\components\broker_name\execution_group_uuid\console.txt

      where workpath is the Message Broker defined working directory.

      The console.txt log file includes information about the Broker ID, messages from the Message Broker, log record, timestamps, Universally Unique ID for IBM Integration Bus objects, and Java exceptions.

  • Syslog
    • UNIX/Linux: The syslog is the local error log. The configuration of your UNIX/Linux system determines where the syslog messages are sent.
  • UserTrace Logs
    • UNIX/Linux: /var/mqsi/common/log
    • - Windows: The default location without a specified integration node work path is C:\ProgramData\IBM\MQSI\Common\log.

      If the path is set with the -w parameter of the mqsicreatebroker command the location is workpath/log.

    The file names reflect the component and subcomponent for which the trace is active.

    For more information about UserTrace logs, see http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSMKHH_10.0.0/com.ibm.etools.mft.doc/ag66260_.htm

The IBM MB Insight Pack can be installed with IBM Operations Analytics - Log Analysis 1.3.0.0 or higher.
