How do I activate Message Queuing in my Windows installation in order to use the Windows MSMQ Queue Length sensor?
MSMQ Message Queuing
To use the Windows MSMQ Queue Length sensor in PRTG, you need to start the Message Queuing service on both the probe system and the target system. You can start services via services.msc.
Message Queuing is only automatically installed on some Windows Server versions. Depending on the Windows version you are using, you might have to install the Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) Server first.
For details, see Installing and Managing Message Queuing.
