10:21How to configure a basic resource monitor?
17:01How to customize resource monitor tasks with variable substitution?
20:46What user ID authorization is required for managed file transfer clients and resource monitors?
22:24What to do if matching resources are available for a defined file resource monitor, but the files never get moved to the destination agent, and transfers end up in ‘resynchronizing’ state?
23:35What to do if destination files transferred by a queue resource monitor contain the wrong data?
25:30Open lines for live question and answer period
25:36 Sometimes when shutting down an active agent, MQ Explorer shows as many as 9 transfers in progress, but yet all transfers seem to have completed. What could cause this behavior?
28:52 How do you monitor a queue that is outside the FTE topology?
32:09 In MQ Explorer plugin there is a stop/started status for a monitor. In the document there is nothing about stopping a monitor, is this something that will come at a later time?

33:49 If we have to call multiple commanda in the same monitor, is there anyway to achive that functionality?
