All, Thanks for your comments.
No matter how many things I stopped and how many times I rebooted the server, I had the problem with locked files. Besides what mentioned below, here is what I did to resolve the problem: - Removed the MQ Taskbar icon from the Startup folder - Set the "IBM MQ Series" service to 'Manual' then REBOOTED. - Tried the CSD07 install again and of course it failed - Checked the CSD install log by doing the following command: notepad %TEMP%\amqicsdn.txt - Search for the string 'Target file is in use' - For each entry found (I had 5), renamed it to 'roger_amq*****' - REBOOTED again. - After the the reboot, deleted the 'roger_amq*****' files - Tried the CSD07 install again and this time it worked. - REBOOT again. - Put back the Task Bar icon in the startup folder - Set the "IBM MQ Series" service to 'Automatic' and started the service. - REBOOTED one last time to make sure everything worked and it did. Now mqver gives 530.7 CSD07. Yeah!!!
