FDCs are primarily intended to provide diagnostic information to MQ support in the event of a product failure being detected, and should not be relied on by users to detect configuration or system errors. There are a number of reasons updates for cluster objects may not be received, and by design the product only issues FDCs when it appears that the reason for out of date information is an internal failure (rather than for example a network issue).
However, in many cases where there is no product 'failure', administrator action is still required (for example to restart a channel), and therefore an informational message as provided today is not necessarily appropriate. Development will review generated messages to ensure that appropriate severities are assigned to the messages and can therefore be appropriately monitored. Use of 'log targets' may assist in automatic monitoring for these alerts.
