1.3.6 Message Tracing

Message tracing is the process of generating report messages when a user message leaves or arrives at a queue manager. Message tracing is an option that can be specified by the original sender of a message. The sender specifies the queue that will receive the system-generated report messages. Report messages are utilized by application logic to track the delivery of sent messages.

A report message contains the following information:

  • Source queue manager

  • Destination queue manager

  • Target queue name

  • Received or sent time

  • Message identifier
