MQ accounting trace
You can start the WebSphere® MQ trace facility at any time by issuing the WebSphere MQ START TRACE command.
Accounting data can be lost if the accounting trace is started
or stopped while applications are running. To collect accounting data
successfully, the following conditions must apply:
- The accounting trace must be active when an application starts. It must still be active when the application finishes.
- If the accounting trace is stopped, any accounting data collection that was active stops.
You cannot use this method to start collecting class 3 accounting information (thread-level and queue-level accounting). You must use the START TRACE command to do this. However, you can include the command in your CSQINP2 input data set so that the trace is started automatically when you start your queue manager.
