• INTROSCOPE

Issue/Introduction

Question:

What are the contents of the data inserted in the MQ message headers by the Introscope WebSphere MQ PowerPack and how can I disable them?

Answer:

The MQ PowerPack sends the Correlation ID as JMS message property “CorIDForSOAPInvocation":

The Correlation ID includes:
•    correlationId
•    Sequence number
•    PropagationFlag
•    CallerName
•    CallerNodeType
•    Optional Parameters

You can stop the MQ header manipulation by changing these two parameters in the IntroscopeAgent.profile and restarting the agent. (Or you can add either of the properties below if not already in the profile):

com.wily.introscope.agent.mqheaderinsertion.enabled=false
com.wily.introscope.agent.mqheaderread.enabled=false
