Recording WebSphere MQ and TIBCO EMS Server events

How to record IBM® WebSphere® MQ and TIBCO EMS Server events.

Recording for WebSphere MQ transports is carried out in a different way than other transports. The WebSphere MQ transport does not provide a native method for watching a queue in a non-destructive manner (that is, events cannot be captured without taking them off the queue).

For this reason, IBM Rational® Integration Tester uses WebSphere MQ’s browse facility to capture messages. To record WebSphere MQ events, Rational Integration Tester polls the queue at a predefined interval and copies event information to the Events View.

Note: Due to the way that Rational Integration Tester records WebSphere MQ events, it is possible that an event could be placed on the queue and removed from the queue before it is seen by Rational Integration Tester. Such events would not be recorded, and they would not be listed on the Events View window. Additionally, if you stop recording an operation and start again, all of the events on the queue are placed in the Events View, even if they were recorded previously.

Recording TIBCO EMS Server events

The following information discusses the recording of TIBCO EMS server events.

Users can record all traffic from a TIBCO EMS server thus removing the requirement to specify in advance which server operations are to be recorded.
