INFO: Using MS DTC Console to Administer MSMQ Transactions (174381)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Message Queue Server (MSMQ) 1.0
This article was previously published under Q174381 SUMMARY
This article discusses how to use Microsoft Distributed Transaction
Coordinator Admin Console to monitor Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ)
transactions.
MORE INFORMATION
MSMQ ships with Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator Admin Console
utility. This allows you to stop and restart MS DTC and monitor statistics
for all transactions managed by DTC. Similar functionality is also
available in Microsoft SQL Server Enterprise Manager and in Microsoft
Transaction Server Explorer.
When testing MSMQ external transactions, the Statistics tab of DTC Admin
Console provides very useful information on active, committed, and aborted
transactions. You can stop and restart DTC service to recycle the count of
transactions shown by the Admin Console.
MS DTC service must be running to perform external transaction, which also
includes MTS (Microsoft Transaction Server) transactions.
REFERENCES

DTC service, see:

Coordinator, Chapter 3, "Administration"
NOTE: The limited SQL shipped with MSMQ in NTS-EE does not include online
manuals. This is available only with the over the counter editions of SQL
6.5.
