Abstract: A server. The server comprises a processor, a memory, and an application that receives an alert message corresponding to an error and a performance metric value in a messaging server, wherein the messaging server is one of a plurality of servers in a rotation that supports a front-end application in a system, identifies a course of action for repair, determines that the number of active servers in the rotation is above a predefined threshold number of active servers, removes the messaging server from the rotation, notifies a system administrator of the removal, the identified error, and the performance metric value, repairs the messaging server by implementing the identified course of action, validates the messaging server by running application programming interface (API) calls, places the repaired messaging server in the rotation, and notifies the system administrator of repair details and API call results.

Abstract: A method of transaction capture and playback is provided. The method comprises identifying monitored components, wherein monitored components comprise one or more hardware platforms supporting an enterprise service oriented architecture. Configuration states of monitored components are stored. Transaction messages into and out of the monitored components are captured, including timestamps. Responses received from components not being monitored are captured, including timestamps. A sequence of transactions is executed, in sequence and with the same timing as the captured transaction messages, to reproduce and monitor for failures.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for monitoring messages through a plurality of queues. Information associated with a channel entry of a message exiting a first queue is obtained. Information associated with the channel entry of the message exiting a second queue is obtained. The information is communicated to a monitoring component for the message. The information from the monitoring component is displayed to enable a user to determine a queue status.
