High Level Design - Administrative Interface
August 21, 1996
We supply a set of administration commands, which users
and administrators can use to operate on queues and messages. These commands
are integrated with the dcecp command set so that the users and administrators
have a common user interface to use. The design of the exact syntax for
each command follows the dcecp design goal.
As with all other dcecp commands, one needs certain authorization to perform
certain operations. We list details the permission requirement in the
detailed specification for the administrative interface.
Queue Operations
- Create a queue on a queue manager
- List queues on a queue manager
- Delete a queue from a queue manager
- Show queue attributes
- Modify queue attributes
- Rename or move a queue
- List all messages' ids on a queue
- List all TTR messages' ids on a queue
- Search messages according to certain selection criteria
- Save the whole queue to its persistent storage
- Dump out all messages (contents) on a queue (debugging purpose)
Message Operations
- Add a new message to a queue
- Delete a message from a queue
- Show message attributes
- Modify message attributes (deferred)
- Redirect new messages from one queue to another
