Use IBM MQ online monitoring

We can collect monitoring data for queues and channels (including automatically defined cluster-server channels) by setting the MONQ, MONCHL, and MONACLS attributes.

Table 1 summarizes the commands to set these attributes at different levels and to display the monitoring information.

Attribute	Applicable at this level	Set using command	Display monitoring information using command
MONQ	Queue	DEFINE QLOCAL DEFINE QMODEL ALTER QLOCAL ALTER QMODEL	DISPLAY QSTATUS
	Queue manager	ALTER QMGR
MONCHL	Channel	DEFINE CHANNEL ALTER CHANNEL	DISPLAY CHSTATUS
	Queue manager	ALTER QMGR
MONACLS	Queue manager	ALTER QMGR

For full details of these commands, see MQSC commands. For more information about online monitoring, see Monitor the IBM MQ network.
