Subscription status attributes

The status attributes of subscriptions.

For each attribute, there is a brief description of what information the attribute shows. The table also gives the equivalent MQSC parameter for the DISPLAY QSTATUS command. For more information about MQSC commands, see Administration using MQSC commands.

Attribute Meaning MQSC parameter
Name This is the application's unique subscription identifier. SUB
Identifier Identifier is assigned by the queue manager as a unique identifier for this subscription. SUBID
User Id The user identifier that is associated with the subscription. SUBUSER
Durable The subscription's Durable parameter can be either Yes or No. When Durable is set to Yes, then the subscriptions are not deleted when the creating application closes its subscription handle. DURABLE
Type The Type of subscription indicates how the subscription was created. The subscription types are:

API: Subscription created by using an MQSUB API request.

ADMIN: Subscription created by using a DEF SUB MQSC or PCF command. ADMIN is also used to indicate that a subscription has been modified by using an administrative command.

PROXY: Subscription created internally for routing publications through a queue manager network.

SUBTYPE
Connection ID The currently active CONNID that has opened this subscription. It is used to detect local publications. ACTCONN
Resume date The date of the most recent MQSUB which connected to this subscription. RESMDATE
Resume time The time of the most recent MQSUB which connected to this subscription. RESMTIME
Date of last publication The date on which a message was last sent to the destination specified by the subscription. LMSGDATE
Time of last publication The time on which a message was last sent to the destination specified by the subscription. LMSGTIME
Message count The number of messages put to the destination specified by this subscription since it was created, or since the queue manager was restarted, whichever is more recent. This number might not reflect the total number of messages that are, or have been, available to the consuming application. This is because it might also include publications that were partially processed but then undone by the queue manager due to a publication failure, or publications that were made within syncpoint that were rolled-back by the publishing application. NUMMSGS
Multicast reliability indicator (%) Indicator of the reliability of the multicast messages. The values are expressed as a percentage. A value of 100 indicates that all messages are being delivered without problems. A value less than 100 indicates that some of the messages are experiencing network issues. To determine the nature of these issues, you can enable event message generation, using the COMMEV parameter of the COMMINFO objects, and examine the generated event messages. Two values are returned:

  • The first value is based on recent activity over a short period of time.
  • The second value is based on activity over a longer period of time. If no measurement is available the values are shown as blanks.
