What to do if messages are building up on your SYSTEM.MANAGED.DURABLE queues or filling your file system
If your WebSphere® MQ Explorer plug-in uses a durable subscription on the coordination queue manager, messages can build up on the SYSTEM.MANAGED.DURABLE queues. If you have a high-volume WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition network, use the WebSphere MQ Explorer plug-in infrequently, or both, this message data can fill the local file system.
To remove the buildup of messages on the SYSTEM.MANAGED.DURABLE
queues, you can perform one of the following actions:
- Start the WebSphere MQ Explorer that uses the durable subscription. The WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition plug-in for WebSphere MQ Explorer consumes the messages from the queue.
- Delete the messages from the queues manually.
To avoid this happening, you can specify
that the WebSphere MQ
Explorer plug-in use a non-durable subscription to the coordination
queue manager. Perform the following steps in your WebSphere MQ Explorer:
- Select
- From the Transfer Log subscriber type list, choose NON_DURABLE.
