Telemetry (MQXR) service

The telemetry (MQXR) service is a TCP/IP listener, that is managed as an IBM® WebSphere® MQ service. Create the service using a IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer wizard, or with a runmqsc command.

The IBM WebSphere MQ Telemetry (MQXR) service is called SYSTEM.MQXR.SERVICE .

The Telemetry sample configuration wizard, provided in the IBM WebSphere MQ Telemetry supplement for IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer, creates the telemetry service and a sample telemetry channel; see Verifying the installation of IBM WebSphere MQ Telemetry by using IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer . Create the sample configuration from the command line; see Verifying the installation of IBM WebSphere MQ Telemetry using the command line .

The telemetry (MQXR) service starts and stops automatically with the queue manager. Control the service using the services folder in IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer. To see the service, you must click the icon to stop the Explorer filtering out SYSTEM objects from the display.
