Queues
The queue is the main messaging component. The Queues tab provides the overview of the pending messages and the most active queues.
On the Queues tab, you can perform the following tasks:
Sorting Queues by Columns
You can sort queues by clicking the arrows on a column heading.
These columns are described in the following table:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Pending Messages | The total number of messages waiting to be delivered to consumers. |
| Pending Size | The total byte size of all pending messages. |
| Consumers | The number of consumers on a queue. |
| Inbound Msgs/s | The number of inbound messages per second in the most recent rate interval. |
| Outbound Msgs/s | The number of outbound messages per second in the most recent rate interval. |
| Store | The name of the store the queue uses to persist messages. |
The default sort is by highest pending messages, so the queues with most messages appear at the top of the list.
Searching for Queues
You can use the Queue name or pattern field to search queues.
You can either search a specific queue or perform a wildcard search. Use Advanced Search to understand the wildcard search rules.
For more information about these searches and how to combine them to narrow the results, see the Wildcards * and > topic in the TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ User Guide.
Viewing Queues Details
The list of queues are displayed on the Queues tab.
Use the dropdown icon 
to expand and view configuration details of the queue.
Viewing Queue Metrics
-
By clicking the queue name, you can go to the Queue metrics page that displays details specific to the queue you have selected rather than the whole system.
-
The Queue metrics page displays charts for Message Rate, Pending Messages, and Pending Bytes in that specific queue.
-
On this page, you can browse pending messages in the queue and filter by message selector. These are specific EMS features. For more information see, TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ documentation.
