MA18 support pack has been withdrawn by IBM. I asked about MA19 as well which is by the same author. Since this information is being posted on the Support Pac site, you will be able to monitor its disposition as well. I suspect it is just a matter of time before MA19 is withdrawn as well.
To see Support Pacs: http://www-306.ibm.com/software/integration/support/supportpacs/ When I tried to select a withdrawn Support Pac (MA18), I was sent to another Page that lists withdrawn Support Pacs. As far as I can tell, you can still use MA18 from this site for backup purposes only and not for general use. You are not to use a withdrawn Support Pac for any new projects. http://www-306.ibm.com/software/integration/support/supportpacs/cat2_withdra wn.html I am not sure how long they last as a withdrawn Support Pac in this location. -----Original Message----- From: MQSeries List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bright, Frank Sent: Tuesday, November 11, 2003 11:38 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Supportpac MA19:Rexx Interface to Issue Commands to MQSeries for MVS/ESA V2.0 Peter I will try to find out the time frames.

When it goes, is there any alternative to enable you to use MQSeries in REXX on the mainframe ? -----Original Message----- From: Bright, Frank [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 11 November 2003 12:22 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Supportpac MA19:Rexx Interface to Issue Commands to MQSeries for MVS/ESA V2.0 I have just learned that MA19 SupportPac will be with drawn as an offering by IBM. I believe the same goes for MA18. If you put any reliance on these SupportPac, you should start making plans for their replacement. Thanks Frank -----Original Message----- From: MQSeries List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bright, Frank Sent: Monday, November 10, 2003 2:53 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Supportpac MA19:Rexx Interface to Issue Commands to MQSeries for MVS/ESA V2.0 I have been using the MA19 support with some good results, however, after a recent test, I have been getting a 2033 for the command responses. The responses wind up in the DEAD.LETTER for dynamic queue RXMQVC.* for reason code 2085. I don't understand what may be wrong since I am passing in the timeout value of 15 seconds. The time it takes to get a 2033 is around 2 seconds. The trace for CMD shows using this interface using the .TO variable is set to 15 with a length of 2. Can anyone offer a suggestion on how to debug this? Thanks Frank This e-mail message and any attachments contain confidential information from Medco Health Solutions, Inc.
