Reading a message

The format of a WebSphere MQ user message is:

• The message identifier, in two parts:

  1. The characters 'AMQ' which identify the message as being from WebSphere MQ

  2. A four-digit decimal code

  If a message is specific to a single platform, this is indicated after the message identifier. In some cases, an identifier might be listed several times, but each instance will relate to a different platform. Ensure that you read the appropriate version.

  If there is a version of the message common to all the remaining platforms, this is listed first, followed by the platform-specific versions.

• The text of the message
