After logging into WMT Angular, the landing page is the MonitorUsers view.
All the tables present in all the views can be sorted in both ascending and descending order by clicking the corresponding column header. The images displayed in the column explain the order.The Filter By
Figure 1: WMT landing page - MonitorUsers View
Filtering
The Filter by option present on the upper-right part of the screen is used to filter the tabular data based on the filtering column selected in the menu and the following text entered in the filter text box..
Figure 2: Filter Options
Refreshing of data
All data present in the MonitorUsers view is refreshed automatically. The ConfigureUsers view, on the other hand, need to be refreshed manually. For refreshing 'configure' view click on any Configure view and click again on the old configure view. Only the ConfigureFMQServer view present in JMX will be refreshed automatically. There is an image next to it.
Data is fetched from the Server after every refresh interval. All tables get updated with the new values fetched. To stop refreshing this view, click the image and click the image to start refresh.
Server Shutdown notification
During interaction with the Server, if the Server shuts down due to unknown reasons, the WMT will display a warning displaying 'Disconnected from Server'. When this warning is displayed, the logout prompt will be replaced with login prompt.
...
If the server is restarted and the WMT did not interact with the server, then clicking on any operation reconnects to the server. To avoid/override this, click the same operation manually.
Common Configurations
Four links at the upper-right side of the page may be viewed:
SaveConfigurations | Saves all the modified properties to the FioranoMQ Server. |
|---|---|
Shutdown | Closes the Server that is running. Do not connect any other application to FioranoMQ server before 'shutdown'. |
Restart | Closes and restarts the Server. Do not connect any other application to FioranoMQ server before 'shutdown'. When the Server restarts, login from the browser window. |
Logout | Logs out the currently logged in user from the WMT application and redirects to the homepage. |
Status Information
The upper-right part of the screen displays information such as the name of the logged in user, the access mode, time and date of FioranoMQ Server startup, FioranoMQ product version number, build number, and the JVM version (indicates whether the server JVM is 32 or 64 bits). .

WMT Views
The different views present in the WMT are as follows:
...
This view contains all existing users and their respective connection status. Users are set as connected if a JMX connection is made or if a JMS client is started. This view also gives information about the maximum connection limit that is set for each user and the current number of connections created by the user.

ConfigureUsers
...
The Import Users and Export Users operations help copying users to another FioranoMQ Server. Export operation allows exporting of all data to a standard file present on any machine (mapping needs to be done if the file is present on a different machine). The data can be imported to any other server that starts with FioranoMQ.

2. Groups
...
This view contains information about all groups and its members. Groups can be added using Add Group and deleted using Delete Selected Groups. For modifying members of an existing group, use Edit Members in Group after selecting the required group. The above actions are available in the Select Action drop-down menu. Select the required action and click the Go button.

To update these values select all the required queues or invoke UpdateSelectedQueues or UpdateAllQueues present in the Select Action dropinvoke Update Selected Queues or Update All Queues present in the Select Action drop-down menu. Deliverable Messages count is the number of messages yet to be delivered from the Queue, and Undeleted Messages count denotes the number of messages yet to be acknowledged by the Consumer and deleted from the data base.
'The SendMessage' operation action will send Persistent Text Messages persistent text messages to the Queue(s) selected. The 'Corrupted Queues' check box check box (present next to the Select Action checkbox), if selected, will display all the corrupted queues in the ' MonitorQueues ' view and ; by default, the view displays all the Queues (Corrupted and Non-Corrupted Queues). The corrupted queues can be recovered and replayed using 'the Recover Selected Queues' and ' and the Replay Messages from Queues' operations operations. The 'Purge Messages' operation operation deletes all the messages in a selected Queue.
