IBM MQ display route application
Use the IBM MQ display route application ( dspmqrte ) to work with trace-route messages and activity information related to a trace-route message, using a command-line interface. The IBM MQ display route application is not available for IBM MQ for z/OS queue managers.
We can use the IBM MQ display route application for the following purposes:
- To configure, generate, and put a trace-route message into a queue manager network.
By putting a trace-route message into a queue manager network, activity information can be collected and used to determine the route that the trace-route message took. We can specify the characteristics of the trace-route messages as follows:
- The destination of the trace-route message.
- How the trace-route message mimics another message.
- How the trace-route message should be handled as it is routed through a queue manager network.
- Whether activity recording or trace-route messaging are used to record activity information.
- To order and display activity information related to a trace-route message.
If the IBM MQ display route application has put a trace-route message into a queue manager network, after the related activity information has been returned, the information can be ordered and displayed immediately. Alternatively, the IBM MQ display route application can be used to order, and display, activity information related to a trace-route message that was previously generated.
- Parameters for trace-route messages
Use this page to obtain an overview of the parameters provided by the IBM MQ display route application, dspmqrte, to determine the characteristics of a trace-route message, including how it is treated as it is routed through a queue manager network.- Display of activity information
The IBM MQ display route application can display activity information for a trace-route message that it has just put into a queue manager network, or it can display activity information for a previously generated trace-route message. It can also display additional information recorded by user-written applications.- IBM MQ display route application examples
The following examples show how we can use the IBM MQ display route application. In each example, two queue managers (QM1 and QM2) are inter-connected by two channels (QM2.TO.QM1 and QM1.TO.QM2).Parent topic: Message monitoring
