This is a known problem which is supposed to be fixed by CSD05. You can find the description in the summary of changes for the CSD. I think the real problem is that the error logs are not rolling over properly because of an authority issue. Check your error logs for the queue manager and see when the latest update was. Since there are no updates, the log utility has no info on which logs are obsolete. As you can see this is a more far reaching problem since you are not getting any info on your error logs. We had a qmgr lock up but could not find the cause because the qmgr was not able to write to the logs. We got around the problem by manually changing the permissions on the error log directory and files. Also, we've already scheduled the install of CSD05.

We have a test server that has three queue managers installed that all use linear logging. The server is WinNT V4 SP6a and MQSeries is V5.2 w/ CSD03 installed. Every night we run a job that issues a rcdmqimg against each queue manager and then runs a utility to clean up log files that are no longer needed. The utility makes this determination by looking at what is the oldest log required for media recovery. This morning we started getting alerts that we were running low on disk space on the logging drive. What I discovered is that for one of the queue managers, the oldest log needed for media recovery was from several months ago. I've tried manually running the rcdmqimg command and have checked the output for errors - thinking that we might have some queue that was causing an error - but I could not find anything. Now I'm stumped. Has anyone else run into a similar issue? If so, were you able to resolve it?
