Viewing messages for object queues

View messages for object queues to gain insight into the health of your application's object queue traffic and to pinpoint the source of errors.

The Messages tab on the Object Queues page displays all undelivered messages for a selected object queue.

The Messages tab is divided into the messages list at the top and the Detail area at the bottom. The tab displays the following information:

Delivery Time

The date and time the message is scheduled to be delivered.

Error Count

The number of errors associated with the message.

Following

Identifies a message to which an order of delivery applies. The message will not be delivered until the current message completes successfully or fails completely.

Is Processing

Indicates whether the message is still processing.

Last Priority

Priority of a message for which the Delivery Time has not yet expired.

Name

The name of the message. This name is either defined by the application developer when the object queue was defined in NexJ Studio, or it is generated based on classes, events, and message type.

Ordinal

The ordinal value of the message. Reflects the position of the message in the object queue.

Original Queue

The first queue to which the message was sent. Use this information to when reviewing the default error queue that stores failed messages from the other originating queues.

Preceding

Indicates the order of operations of messages passing through a queue. A message will not be processed until the preceding message is processed.

Priority

The priority of the message. The priority is automatically set to the queue’s priority to which the message is sent. In certain cases, an administrator may set the priority manually to define ordering within a queue.

Queue

The queue to which the message has most recently been sent.

Resource Held

Indicates whether the message has acquired any resources or is processing. When true, the message will be recovered following any server failure.

Sent

The state of persistent messages. For more information about the states, see Message states.

When persistent messages complete successfully they are deleted and have no state.
