   * Within the TDLQ, the Class column shows the reason the message arrived there. Common messages include "The queue was purged" or "The queue was deleted".
   * Purge the content of the TDLQ/DLQ to free storage space.

 Define thresholds for the performance counters. Then create alerts that are triggered when the thresholds are exceeded. The alerts can be integrated with monitoring suites like Solarwinds, New Relic, SCOMM, or similar tools.
 
-To determine useful thresholds, determine what values are typical for the specific environment to act as a baseline. This helps detect and address potential issues early, e.g. before MSMQ reaches its limits with regards to disk and memory usage.
