Table 1. Workstation panel primary commands

Primary command

Description

ALL

This command shows all IBM MQ queue managers for which MainView AutoOPERATOR for MQ will attempt automation.

eqi xxx

This command shows only queue managers where MainView AutoOPERATOR for MQ exists, including instrumentation events for automation. Use xxx to specify which instrumentation events you want to view, where xxx may be any (or all) of the following values:

  • Q: system.admin.qmgr.event
  • P: system.admin.perfm.event
  • C: system.admin.channel.event
  • F: system.admin.config.event
  • M: system.admin.command.event

Example

To view only the queue managers that include system.admin.qmgr.event and system.admin.channel.event, type EQI QC.

This command cannot be used if MainView AutoOPERATOR coexists with the PATROL for MQ.

neqi xxx

This command does the opposite of the EQI command. With this command, you can specify which queues not to view. Use xxx to specify which instrumentation events you do not want to view, where xxx may be any (or all) of the following values:

  • Q: system.admin.qmgr.event
  • P: system.admin.perfm.event
  • C: system.admin.channel.event
  • F: system.admin.config.event
  • M: system.admin.command.event

Example

To view the queue managers that do not include SYSTEM.ADMIN.CHANNEL.EVENT, type:

NEQI C

This command cannot be used if MainView AutoOPERATOR coexists with PATROL for MQ.

ee xxx

This command shows only queue managers with xxx events enabled, where xxx may be any (or all) of the following values:

  • S: STRSTPEV (Start/Stop event)
  • L: LOCALEV (Local event)
  • I: INHIBTEV (Inhibit event)
  • P: PERFMEV (Performance event)
  • R: REMOTEV (Remote event)
  • F: CONFIGEV (Configuration event)
  • M: CMDEV (Command event)
  • C: CHLEV (Channel event)
  • V: SSLEV (SSL event)
  • B: BRIDGEEV (Bridge event)

Example

To view only those queue managers which include remote events, type:

EE R

nee xxx

This command works the opposite of the ee xxx. Use this command to show only the queue managers that do not have xxx events enabled, where xxx may be any one (or all) of the following events

  • S: STRSTPEV (Start/Stop event)
  • L: LOCALEV (Local event)
  • I: INHIBTEV (Inhibit event)
  • P: PERFMEV (Performance event)
  • R: REMOTEV (Remote event)
  • M: CMDEV (Command event)
  • C: CHLEV (Channel event)
  • V: SSLEV (SSL event)
  • B: BRIDGEEV (Bridge event)

Example

To view the queue managers which do not include remote events, type:

nee r

Note

The status of events is determined when MainView AutoOPERATOR for MQ connects to the queue manager.

If the status is changed, MainView AutoOPERATOR for MQ must be disconnected and then reconnected to reset the status. To request this status change, use the BBI control command .RESET:

.RESET QM xxxx

where xxxx is the four-character queue manager ID.
