Monitoring Microsoft Message Queues

[PatrickV]

Hello,

Our company is trying out Nagios XI and could be a replacement for the tools that we are running now.
What is very imported for us is to be able to monitor Microsoft Message Queues.

Can anyone provide use with information how to do this?

Thank you and regards,

PatrickV

Do you have an API or something where you can see the ques?
Because In my company we had to monitor some queue in Azure and there was a page where you could see the ques status and you had an option to export it as XML/CSV.
What I did is I wrote a script which exports every minute the CSV file, and then writes the details inside a text file, and I basically monitor the TXT file which gives me what I need.

I am actually working on something regarding exchange queues and various other M$ enterprise products, although it is a fair ways from being finished. Depending on what you are looking to monitor, I would highly suggest taking a look at the performance counters available, I added a link below that I find pretty useful! http://www.questiondriven.com/2011/06/0 ... onitoring/

I will look into the performance counters. Thanks.
