Automatically resetting sequence numbers without knowing why they are out of sequence is a bit risky, no? >"I remember making many > agonizing phone calls to outside companies, asking them to reset their > channels." I've had a RCVR channel be out of sequence with an external partners SNDR. We knew why our RCVR's # was whack, so we just looked in the error log and it told us what it was expecting. Then we just reset our RCVR and the channel was up and running once again without the other side being involved.

So you have to choose between the ability to restart a remote SDR or having the enhanced robustness of a RCVR. I've worked at several companies where they not only test DR failover regularly but have instituted a swing policy. They run on Instance-A for some period, then swing to Instance-B. Usually this is weekly or monthly. In these cases, they almost always use RQSTR channels for that reason but the lack of AdoptNewMCA bites them once in a great while. -- T.Rob MQSeries List <[email protected]> wrote on 01/25/2008 01:03:47 PM: > > Very nice.
