When Nodinite detects a problem with resources within your queue manager an alert can get distributed using any of the built-in Alarm plugins to get you or the responsible organization aware and involved.

Delegate control and fix problems with ease

With Nodinite you can fix your IBM MQ related problems. Delegate control using role based security and [manage problems with your queues](Managing queues) from the Web Client.

Stay secure

Nodinite has Role based security and enables you to restrict access down to individual resources using Monitor Views. We at Nodinite think it is wise to limit the number of power users (administrators) from having direct access to servers and services. All operations in Nodinite are being audited.

How do I know how many queue managers and queues I have?

Nodinite groups your resources in a smart way. You can view them directly in the Web Client or customize and automate this further through the Web API. Use this data within your Power BI Reports.

Grow together

As your number of queues and other IBM MQ-related resources grows, Nodinite and the Agent automatically detect and monitor additional deployed resources.
