Msmq queue depth monitoring and reporting

[Manish.Kale]

I see a IBM MQ extenion and I am looking for a similar extension for MSMQ, but I am not able to find one. 

Can someone share their experience on how they may have implemented Msmq queue depth monitoring and reporting.

Thanks in Advance.

I am too looking for same.Our Aim is to monitor a msmq and get notified if the number of messages in the queue exceeds a certain number.

Any help appreciated.

Hi @Prachi.Shintre,

We have a Community Idea Exchange where this idea can be posted. I did a quick search and I only found this one idea related to MSMQ - https://community.appdynamics.com/t5/Idea-Exchange/Create-a-JMS-Agent-to-replace-MQ-Extension/idi-p/...

If that idea is not what you are looking for, you can create the idea yourself. Be sure to read our submission guidelines first, this helps you know how to write out an excellent idea exchange post https://community.appdynamics.com/t5/Knowledge-Base/Idea-Exchange-Submission-Guidelines/ta-p/38092

Note: The Idea Exchange is currently only available to AppD Customers.

Hi Manish

Short of creating a new extension, one of the fastest ways to get this done would be to create a Powershell script(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/msmq/get-msmqqueue?view=windowsserver2019-ps) which queries the data you require and then use the http listener functionality of the Machine agent to push the queue depth values into AppD

From there you can add the health rules etc. as needed
