Telemetry channel status objects

A telemetry channel status object is an MQTT client that collects information from telemetry devices attached to it and sends the information to IBM MQ .

MQTT clients appear as queue managers to other standard IBM MQ queue managers. In the same way that channels are a communication link between queue managers in IBM MQ, a telemetry channel performs the same purpose. It links a queue manager to MQTT clients.

We can write your own MQTT client application that implements the MQTT v3 protocol. For more information about writing MQTT client applications, see Developing applications for IBM MQ Telemetry.


Purge an MQTT client

Purging an MQTT client connection disconnects the client from a telemetry channel and cleans up the state of that client.

Cleaning the state of a client involves deleting all pending publications, and removing all subscriptions from that client.
