Monitor SQL Server service Broker queue status

Question

I need to monitor SQL Server service Broker queue status.  If the queue is disabled, send me an email alert.
Can you let me know what's the best way to accomplish it using SCOM?

Answer 1

1) create a queue for notification
2) create a service on notification queue
3)Create an event notification for broker queue disable. Associate this with the queue that you are monitoring.
4)Create a procedure that send you and email with this event happens
Example:
---- Notification
CREATE
QUEUENotify_queue
-- Service
CREATE
SERVICE[http://queue_Notify]
ONQUEUENotify_queue([http://schemas.microsoft.com/SQL/Notifications/PostEventNotification]);
--Event 
CREATE
EVENTNOTIFICATION[http://queue_Notify_event]
ONQUEUETarget_queue
FORBROKER_QUEUE_DISABLED
TOSERVICE'http://queue_Notify','current
database';
GO
procedure will be something like...
WAITFOR
RECEIVETOP(1)
@RecvReqMsgName=message_type_name,
@RecvReplyMsg=message_body,
@RecvReplyDlgHandle=conversation_handle
FROMNotify_queue),TIMEOUT5000
IF(@RecvReqMsgName='http://schemas.microsoft.com/SQL/Notifications/EventNotification')
BEGIN
DECLARE@cmdNVARCHAR(MAX)
SET@cmd='dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name="Name XYZ",
@recipients="[email protected]",
@body="CAST(@RecvReplyMsg as NVARCHAR(MAX)",
@subject="Queue Disabled Detected";'
EXEC
(@cmd)
END
