Can I monitor IBM MQ queue depths used by Nodinite?

Yes—use [IBM MQ Monitoring Agent][IBM MQAgent] to monitor SYSTEM.BROKER.MONITORING.EVENTS queue depth in real-time. Configure alerts:

  • Queue depth >400,000 messages (80% of MAXDEPTH 500,000): "Nodinite agent likely stopped consuming, investigate before queue fills"
  • Queue depth growth rate >10,000 messages/minute: "Monitoring Event production exceeds consumption, possible agent performance issue"
  • Queue age >4 hours: "Oldest message stuck in queue for 4 hours, agent may have stopped"

Proactive monitoring prevents audit trail gaps. Operations team receives alert 2-6 hours before queue fills (time to investigate agent status, restart if needed, increase MAXDEPTH if volumes higher than expected).
