Configuring WebSphere MQ Explorer to monitor a remote coordination queue manager

You can use WebSphere® MQ Explorer to monitor file transfers associated with a coordination queue manager running on a remote system. You can configure this using the fteSetupCoordination and fteSetupCommands commands.

About this task

You can install WebSphere MQ Explorer and WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition Remote Tools and Documentation on either Windows or Linux. To monitor queue managers and file transfers between agents on a system that is not running Windows or Linux, install the Remote Tools and Documentation on a Windows or Linux system and configure the WebSphere MQ Explorer plug-in to connect to the remote system. Follow the instructions in the Installing Remote Tools and Documentation topic to configure this during installation. If you have already completed installation, configure the plug-in using the following steps:

Procedure

  1. Run the fteSetupCoordination command and supply the details of the coordination queue manager that you want to monitor.
  2. Run the fteSetupCommands command and supply the details of a command queue manager in your WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition network.

Results

Now start WebSphere MQ Explorer. You should be able to monitor transfer activity for the WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition network associated with the coordination queue manager that you specified during step 1.
