Step 7: (Optional) Define a Log Stream for WebSphere MQ Option (INST0046)

This step is required only if you are running the CA SYSVIEW Option for WebSphere MQ.

This step defines a log stream to contain the WebSphere MQ data collector created records. A unique log stream must be created on each system.

Note: The parmlib members for specifying log stream names are located in the sysview.CNM4BPRM data set.

Follow these steps:

1. Specify the log stream as shown in the example that follows this procedure.
2. Specify the name of the log stream that this step defined in the following parmlib members:

   MQSDATA

   Provides default configuration options for the WebSphere MQ Data Collector function.

   LOGSTREAM-MQSDATA-NAME   logstream.name
   

   If the logging function is not going to be used or the log stream has not been defined, set the following option:

   LOGSTREAM-MQSDATA-NAME    NONE
   

   LGLOOKUP

   Associates a log name that is defined in this member with a log stream name.

   Sysname  Logname.......LogStream-Name
   Sysname  MQSDATA.MQHR  logstream.name
   

3. Submit the INST0046 job.

   The log stream for WebSphere MQ Option is defined and the collected data can be viewed online.

Example: Define an MQHR Log Stream

This example shows an MQ log stream:

//MQS      EXEC  PGM=IXCMIAPU,REGION=0M
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN    DD *
    DATA TYPE(LOGR) REPORT(NO)
