Hi all,
We used z/OSMF to install z/OS 3.1 successfully. Now that we're on 3.1, we
just tried to start z/OSMF to retrieve and install an MQ upgrade but we can't
get the server to start. Just looking for a place to start looking or any
suggestions.
The angel process is running. When we try to start the server, it starts up
then we get this block of gibberish.
