Recording, viewing, and replaying data

Record data that is processed by a message flow, or emitted from WebSphere® Application Server. View and replay the data.

If you configured your message flow to emit event messages, the monitoring events publish selected message data, which you can then view or replay (resubmit for processing). WebSphere Application Server events are typically published to a WebSphere MQ queue, configured by the WebSphere Application Server administrator. The record function subscribes to the published monitoring data, and stores the data in a database. You can then view the data through the web user interface, or replay it by resending the message to an MQ queue.

For more information about recording and replaying data, see Record and replay. For more information about monitoring events, see Business-level monitoring.

To record, view, and replay data, follow these steps:

  1. (Message flows only.) Configure the monitoring event points in the message flow. For information, see Deciding how to configure monitoring events for message flows.
  2. (Message flows only.) Deploy your message flow. For more information, see Deploying resources
  3. (Message flows only.) Configure IBM® Integration Bus to record data. For more information, see Recording data.
  4. Configure IBM Integration Bus to view recorded data through the web user interface or programmatically. For more information, see Viewing recorded data.
  5. Replay data to a WebSphere MQ queue, by using the web user interface, the REST API, or the IBM Integration API. For more information, see Replaying data.
  6. If you want to view or replay recorded data through the web user interface, you must create a web user account by using the mqsiwebuseradmin command. See Managing web user accounts and mqsiwebuseradmin command.
  7. If you want to control users' ability to record, view, and replay data, you must enable broker administration security and also configure security for data capture. For information, see Enabling security for record and replay.
  8. If you want to use different brokers for deploying your message flows and for recording data captured from those message flows to a database, you must configure a publish/subscribe relationship between the brokers. For more information, see Using multiple brokers for record and replay.
