MIF 7.6 Message tracking changes

Troubleshooting


Problem

Starting in Maximo 7.6, the messages written by the Message Tracking application are stored in the database. They are no longer written as xml files as in previous versions.

Symptom

Customers have asked how to search and view MSGDATA data from the MAXINTMSGTRK table.

It is not possible to search or retrieve the data in the maxintmsgtrk table in 7.6.using SQL. The BLOB field is stored compressed.
