You can configure IBM MQ monitoring in different ways. One is to use the json error logs of the Qmanager and forward them to the midleo.CORE (Middleware Admin) system.
There is an article for configuring the json logs: Forwarding MQ JSON error logs to Elasticsearch
In our scenario, we will use only filebeat and logstash as additional services.
You can find the configuration files in github: Midleo Agents github
When the services are installed and configurations updated, it is important to update the variables in logstash.conf file:
"srvid" => "" #the "uid" from /var/midleoagent/conf/agentConfig.json
"inttoken" => "" #internal API token taken from Middleware Admin Configuration -> Core
url => "http://web/pubapi/monalert" #web -> the DNS name of the Middleware Admin frontend
now you can start the logstash and filebeat services.
Back in the Middleware Admin control panel -> Monitoring, you have to add the Error code for which you want to receive notifications or incidents.
In our test case:
Now we can test the monitoring.
