OVERVIEW

LAMAXU - Pronounced LAMASSU (is an Assyrian protective deity)

Lamaxu is a unique IBM MQ monitoring ‘Agentless’ agent, and Web Service API, that allows organizations to build comprehensive monitoring solutions for MQ that meet their own unique business requirements. By providing an open API to build upon, Lamaxu enables you to focus on what to monitor and measure, rather than how.

The Lamaxu process is designed to be executed as a service, and can be run on the same, or remote server as the queue managers from which it’s collecting data. Object configuration, status, event, accounting and statistics data is collected at configurable intervals, defined in the config.xml file, and persisted to an in-memory data cache.

Typical use cases are:

1. To access queue manager metrics which are otherwise inaccessible due to partially implemented support for monitoring IBM MQ in major monitoring platforms. Some examples include message age and depth of a subscription.
