transaction server, pile of crap

So I’ve been working with the 8.98.1.1 txn server and server manager of the same release.  I gotta tell you that this thing is a pile of poo.  We are hitting it hard (250000 messages at a time), but it breaks with different error messages all of the time.

I’ve been getting terrible responses from oracle too, untimely and inaccurate.

But, one thing they did provide was an IBM product called the service integration bus explorer – it’s awesome!

You can see all your queues with accurate numbers.  Take it from me – the queue count in SM is an approximation at best…

The purge functionality works and you don’t have to wait hours to see the queued message count.  It’s been a very positive step seeing this in action.
