A QAnywhere client application can send special messages to the server called server management requests. These messages contain content that is formatted as XML and are addressed to the QAnywhere system queue. They require a special authentication string. Server management requests can perform a variety of functions, such as querying for active clients, querying message store properties, and querying messages.

For detailed information about the functions you can perform with server management requests and how to use them, see Writing server management requests.
