MFT monitor log message format
Monitor log messages are published to the SYSTEM.FTE topic with a topic string of Log/agent_name/Monitors/monitor_name/monitor_ID.
If you want to collect data or view monitor actions, set up a subscription to a wildcard topic tailored to the monitors that you are interested in. For example:Log/#or,Log/agent_name/#This subscription can be durable or non-durable. Durable subscriptions continue to exist when a subscribing application's connection to the queue manager is closed. Non-durable subscriptions exist only as long as a subscribing application's connection to the queue manager remains open.The MonitorLog.xsd schema document is located in the MQ_INSTALLATION_PATH/mqft/samples/schema directory. The MonitorLog.xsd schema imports fteutils.xsd, which is in the same directory.
Schema
The following schema describes which elements are valid in a monitor log XML message.
