Websphere 7 SIB Queue: how to access queue depth wsadmin command?

I'd like to use the WSADMIN command that is part of WebSphere 7 to query the state of the queues on the system.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks

Solution

So to find out the queue depths I've written this JACK script...

set qpoint "WebSphere:*,type=SIBQueuePoint"
set queues [$AdminControl queryNames $qpoint]
foreach q $queues {
set identifier [$AdminControl getAttribute $q identifier]
set size [$AdminControl getAttribute $q depth]
puts "$identifier size: $size messages"
puts [$AdminControl getAttributes $q]

Stuff it in a file on the box, jeff.jacl and call the command...

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin # ./wsadmin.sh -profile jp.cmd.jacl

And what do you get? well you get a whole bag of awesomeness!

WASX7209I: Connected to process "server1" on node WRSNode using SOAP connector; The type of process is: UnManagedProcess
CHANGE_REQUEST size: 15 messages
{depth 15} {state ACTIVE} {id CFAC834BE6AF5D9A30451D01_QUEUE_51} {identifier CHANGE_REQUEST} {highMessageThreshold 50000} {sendAllowed true}
ETL_DEAD size: 378 messages

Next job is to see if I can all the java code that is used by JACL directly.
