Edward, are you sure that some of the messages didn't go to the DLQ on the other end of your channel? I've seen this happen when the DLQ over there gets full; the channel stops and the messages start to build up in the transmission queue until it, too, is full. At least, I think that's what I remember happening, but it's been quite a while, so my memory may be a bit off. -- Rebecca

One of the applications using MQ forgot to service the queue (meaning "GET" ing messages from the queue). Hence, the queue filled up. But instead of trying to put the excess messages in the DLQ on the receiving side, it started filling up the transmit queue. Also, one of the side effects is that other applications using the same transmit queue were temporarily out of commission. I have also seen the receiver channel on the "GET" ing side pause. Has anybody come across this problem? The version of MQ is 5.2 with CSD05 on Windows 2000 cluster. Most of the times in order to solve the crisis what we have done is to stop and start MQ (which drains the messages in the queue which filled up) and everything starts to work fine. What am I missing here.... In appreciation, Edward Pius.
