# Manage queue messages

Use this page to view runtime details and content for each message, as well as to create new messages, delete selected messages, move messages to another destination, export message contents in XML format to another file, import XML formatted message contents from another file, or drain all the messages from a queue.

To manage a queue's messages:

1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
2. In the Administration Console, navigate to the queue resource that you want to configure:
   - Navigate to JMS Resources in System Modules
   - Navigate to JMS resources in an application module
3. Click the Monitoring tab.
4. Select the check box next to the queue, and then click Show Messages to access the queue's JMS Messages table. You can then perform the following administrative procedures on a specific message or selected messages:
   - Click a message in the queue to open the View Contents page, where you can view the contents of a JMS message. For more information, see Configuration Options.
   - Click New to create a new JMS message. You can specify header and body content when creating the message, which will then be produced on the current queue. For more information, see Configuration Options.
   - Select messages for deletion and click Delete to delete them from the current queue. For more information, see Configuration Options.
   - Click Move to transfer selected JMS messages from the current queue to another destination, including a destination on a different JMS server. For more information, see Configuration Options.
   - Click Import to import a message in XML format, which results in the creation or replacement of a message on the current queue. For more information, see Configuration Options.
   - Click Export to export a message from the current queue, which results in a JMS message that is converted to either XML or serialized format. For more information, see Configuration Options.
   - Click Delete to drain all JMS messages from the current queue. For more information, see Configuration Options.

   For more information about the JMS Messages table, see Configuration Options.

5. Optionally, click Customize this table to change the columns displayed in the JMS Messages table. To make changes, you must lock the domain configuration before making changes and activate the changes when you are finished.
6. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
   Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
