Header Section of IBM MQ Message Contains Garbled Characters After Implementing OpenTelemetry (OTEL) for Tracing

70 Views Asked by At

I recently replaced DataDog with OpenTelemetry in a Spring Boot application. Upon inspecting the logs and traces, no issues were identified. However, a specific functionality in the application involves publishing messages to IBM MQ. While using DataDog, we encountered no problems, but since migrating to OpenTelemetry, IBM MQ messages now contain special characters. I am seeking guidance on disabling trace propagation to MQ. How can I deactivate OTEL propagation or TraceParent specifically for the JMS queue? I believe this modification could potentially resolve the issue. Are there any alternative suggestions for resolving this matter?

You can disable the "JMS" or "Spring JMS" module.

In addition, you can create a bug report with detailed information what is wrong exactly.
