Managing Queues and Messages

When a Service Broker application is in production, most day-to-day management occurs as a

normal part of maintenance of the Database Engine. Service Broker provides performance

counters and event notifications to monitor a service. However, you might have to work

directly with a message queue or with the messages in a queue. This might be necessary to

troubleshoot a service or to collect information about the traffic that is received by a queue.
