Parmlib Members › WebSphere MQ Members › MQSSTATE

MQSSTATE

The WebSphere MQ data collector monitors WebSphere MQ resources. Exception or threshold alerts can be generated when resource usage exceeds the defined range. The MQSSTATE parmlib member is used to define the states of WebSphere MQ resources to monitor.

The alerting mechanism can trigger any of the following actions:

• Write a message to the job log
• Write a message to the console
• Execute a predefined IMOD (REXX EXEC)
• Send an SNMP alert trap
• Send an event notification request to CA OPS/MVS
• Execute an event capture member

The WebSphere MQ data collector uses the definitions or rules defined in this member to specify individual or generic wildcard state definitions.
