Configure IBM MQ Tracing on Kubernetes

n002213f — Tue, 01 Apr 2025 09:01:19 GMT

I would like to enable IBM MQ Tracing for my application.

I have seen the extension here, https://www.dynatrace.com/hub/detail/ibm-mq-oneagent/?query=mq#get-started stating that for k8s only the configuration is required to enable the tracing.

I would like to know exact configuration to apply to activate the feature. I was on the these pages, however there is no mention on IBM MQ Tracing.

Hi @n002213f

In your environment enable the listed oneagent features in the settings to reach the MQ trace information:

I hope it helps.

For tracing you only need to have those oneagent features enabled. Those should be enabled by default. You might need to define custom service for messaging on the consumer side depending on the application being traced.

The extension is for gathering metrics from mq managers.
