Rebecca may be on the right track. Check that the NIS account is in an authorised group on the server.

Re: MQClient thread-safe?
To all, My apologies I had read about shared connections in V5.3 and promptly forgot them again so yes you now can coordinate units of work across multiple threads. Tim, I don't wish to be picky here but I didn't mention coordination. A shared connection can be used across multiple threads but there is still only one unit of work associated with the connection.

Re: Production MQ abends - 2019 / 2195 / 2079 and more.
Michelle, is it possible that a new application went into production three days ago that (by accident) writes directly to the initiation queue MQPB.INITQ.PB.PCCIC? Also, the RACF message shows a queue name of MVB1.MQPB.INITQ.PB.PCCIC, which is a different name, but that might be OK. Did any RACF definitions change or is the later INITQ a new one and the RACF permissions for your started task userID(ZMQMAB1) have not been properly set?

Re: How a MQSeries Hub does its thing with persistent / non-persi stent messages
Well, I think I have proved what everyone was saying. A channel speed of Normal is what is getting me here. Neil Casey and Brian McCarty provided the exact explanation as to why: non persistent messages sent over a normal speed channel cause persistent message to be written to the channel sync queue, which requires disk. I set up some tests in my lab environment. Here are the results. * Server1: SpokeQM1, Win2000 SP2, MQ 5.3 CSD03 RemoteQ called FinalQ that points to FinalQ on SpokeQM2, via transmit queue HubQM1 Server2: HubQM1, Win2000 SP2, MQ 5.2.1 CSD05 QMAlias called SpokeQM2, which sends messages to transmit queue SpokeQM2.XMITQ Server3: SpokeQM2, Win2000 SP2, MQ 5.2.1 CSD05 Local queue called FinalQ *** Test #1: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of NORMAL. Start putting 1K Non-Persistent(NP) messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1. Results #1: As expected, constant disk writes on the server that houses HubQM1. Test #2: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 1K NP messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1. Results #2: As expected, no disk activity at all on the server that houses HubQM1. Actually, there was disk activity when the channel started/ended, but for the whole duration while the channel was running, no I/O. Test #3: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 70,000 byte NP messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1. Results #3: No disk activity at all on the server that houses HubQM1. ??? These messages are larger than the 64K queue buffer, so why are the messages flying thru the hub with no I/O? I am happy with these results, just that it is unexpected. Could it be that the Sending MCA to SpokeQM2 has the XMIT queue open ready for messages, with an outstanding GET? But I thought this was a feature new to 5.3 only. Test #4: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 5000 byte NP messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1. Every 45 seconds or so, I send over a Persistent 5000 byte message on the same channel. Results #4: As expected, no disk activity at all on the server that houses HubQM1, except every 45 seconds when the P message comes over. Test #5: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 5000 byte NP messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1. As the messages are flowing, yank the 2 cables that connect this server to the SAN (Veritas was disabled so it would not try and fail over). Results #5: No effect at all. Even though the server had no hard disk, these messages still kept flying thru the server as if nothing at all was wrong. Test #6: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 5000 byte NP messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1. At the same time, start putting 5000 byte P messages over the same channel. As the messages are flowing, yank the 2 cables that connect this server to the SAN (Veritas was disabled so it would not try and fail over). Results #6: Everything backs up. Both NP and P messages are backed up in the XMITQ on SPOKEQM1. As soon as the cables are plugged back in, the messages start flowing again. Test #7: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 5000 byte NP messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1. At the same time, start putting 5000 byte P messages over A DIFFERENT CHANNEL between SpokeQM1 and HubQM1. As the messages are flowing, yank the 2 cables that connect this server to the SAN (Veritas was disabled so it would not try and fail over). Results #7: Everything backs up on the channel that was dealing with P messages. The channel that had only NP messages was not effected at all. As soon as the cables are plugged back in, the messages start flowing again on the secondary channel. The primary channel that had NP messages never blinked. So now I am kinda stuck. Back in the production environment, what to do? I can set the channel between SpokeQM1 and the HUB to fast, as it is a dedicated channel for this application anyway. I'll just let them know of the possibility (very remote) that the channel may lose their message. SAN blips are a lot more frequent than MQ losing NP messages over a FAST channel. But what do I do with the CLUSRCVR channels? They are a shared resource for the whole company. Do I let this one application dictate that these channels get switched to FAST, at the risk of other apps having NP message lost. Granted, we have a pretty reliable network here, but man, what a waste of time trying to hunt for messages that get lost over the fast channel. (For anyone just jumping into the thread now, please don't suggest that I just make the messages persistent. That is not the

Re: Data conversion with MA7P using .NET application
Dan, MQ convertion works fine when done by the application, plus we have some blobs to traverse the network. Channel convertion is not an option. As far as messing with the CCSID, we're using standard NT, AIX , and MVS queue managers. The application group is converting to the .NET and we have been using the standard to convert at the receiving application without problem. This should support the standard API. glen Capodicci, Dan (COMFIN, ITSS) [EMAIL PROTECTED]@AKH-Wien.AC.AT on 06/03/2003 01:08:42 PM Please respond to MQSeries List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by:MQSeries List [EMAIL PROTECTED] To:[EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject:Re: Data conversion with MA7P using .NET application Hi Glen I can't say whether this is a bug or not (or as I like to refer to them, undocumented enhancements) although I haven't encountered this issue in the past with VB and ActiveX apps that do pretty much the same as is being done in this .Net app. What lead me to putting the CCSID parm change in was that I was receiving a 2110 MQRC_FORMAT_ERROR on the data passing through the channels and the conversion was not taking place. My problem was from the front end up to the mainframe which is why I had the CCSID changed to 500. We have a request/reply scenario so once the requesting data got to the mainframe correctly, I had no further problems from there. I am not having a problem with the conversion on the way down but I am doing it in the channels (I now this is generally not the preferred method but I have found it much easier to work with this way!) The only difference that I would think between the 2 methods here is that the channel method converts it to the CCSID for the receiving qmanager, in my case 437 so I do not need to have the CCSID parm set in the return message. In your case, are you having the mainframe app set the CCSID in the MQMD?!? It sounds as though you are failing on the MQGET with convert, are you getting an error thrown, such as a 2110?!? If so, you might try having the mainframe program setting the CCSID parm to that of the receiving qmanager and see if that helps. Hope it helps!!

Re: Data conversion with MA7P using .NET application
Elena - This is a known bug in the current .NET support pac. What is happening is that by default the MQQueue class attempts to get the message with a 1 byte buffer. This of course fails (unless you just happen to be passing a 1 or 0 byte message!!) with a truncation failure. The class then resizes its internal buffer and retries the MQGET call, and since the buffer is now large enough the message is retrieved. (BTW, the ActiveX classes do the same thing, but they start with a 2K buffer). The problem with the .NET classes is that after the first MQGET call the MQMD-CCSID field has been updated with the value from the message - which is the value from the mainframe queue manager. When the second call is made, this field is not reinitialized. This tells MQ to convert the data into the code page from the mainframe. Since the data is already in this code page, no conversion takes place. One way to work around this problem is to instruct the class to use a bigger default buffer size. You do this on the put method. For example, to use a 5000 byte buffer in VB.NET code the following myQueue.Get(myMsg, myGMO, 5000) This does, however, require you to know what the largest size message will be.

Re: How a MQSeries Hub does its thing with persistent / non-persi stent messages
Hi Peter,
thanks for the update and the information about your test results.
We handle this issue by running multiple overlapping clusters, and having
separate channels for each cluster.
Eg:
QM1 and QM2 are in clusters CL1 and CL2.
Rather than-
DEFINE NAMELIST(ClusList) names('CL1,CL2') and
DEFINE chl(TO.QM1) chltype(CLUSRCVR) ... clusnl(ClusList)
we would-
DEFINE CHL(TO.QM1.CL1) chltype(CLUSRCVR)... cluster(CL1) and
DEFINE CHL(TO.QM1.CL2) chltype(CLUSRCVR)... cluster(CL2).
ie a separate channel is used in each cluster.
This lets us put different NPMSPEED, SSL and other parameters on channels
for different uses (clusters), even when they go to the same queue manager.
Our naming standards limit the length of a queue manager name to 8
characters, and also limit cluster names to 8 characters, which means that
our channels names are no more than 20 characters.
In your environment, you could build an new cluster for this application
(you can still use the same queue managers as repositories - just use
namelists to list the clusters you want to host). The high performance
queues live in the new cluster with NPMSPEED(FAST). Everything else goes in
the normal cluster(s).
As always in computing, there are trade-offs to be made. In this case, you
lose some of the perceived benefits of clustering (simplicity) because you
have to build and manage multiple clusters. This makes things like stopping
a queue manager more complicated, because you have to suspend from all
clusters, not just one. You also have to make correct decisions about which
cluster(s) to connect a queue into, which makes administration more complex
(but perhaps more interesting as well).
Regards,
Neil Casey.

Well, I think I have proved what everyone was saying. A channel speed of
Normal is what is getting me here. Neil Casey and Brian McCarty provided
the
exact explanation as to why: non persistent messages sent over a normal
speed channel cause persistent message to be written to the channel sync
queue, which requires disk. I set up some tests in my lab environment. Here
are the results.
*
Server1: SpokeQM1, Win2000 SP2, MQ 5.3 CSD03
RemoteQ called FinalQ that points to FinalQ on SpokeQM2, via transmit queue
HubQM1
Server2: HubQM1, Win2000 SP2, MQ 5.2.1 CSD05
QMAlias called SpokeQM2, which sends messages to transmit queue
SpokeQM2.XMITQ
Server3: SpokeQM2, Win2000 SP2, MQ 5.2.1 CSD05
Local queue called FinalQ
***
Test #1: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of NORMAL. Start putting 1K
Non-Persistent(NP) messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def
on SpokeQM1.
Results #1: As expected, constant disk writes on the server that houses
HubQM1.
Test #2: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 1K NP
messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on SpokeQM1.
Results #2: As expected, no disk activity at all on the server that houses
HubQM1. Actually, there was disk activity when the channel started/ended,
but for the whole duration while the channel was running, no I/O.
Test #3: Channel SpokeQM1.HubQM1 has a speed of FAST. Start putting 70,000
byte NP messages every 250 milliseconds to the remote queue def on
SpokeQM1.
Results #3: No disk activity at all on the server that houses HubQM1. ???
These messages are larger than the 64K queue buffer, so why are the
messages
flying thru the hub with no I/O? I am happy with these results, just that
it

If a queue manager name is specified, eliminate queue manager alias' that are not PUT enabled. Eliminate remote CLUSRCVR channels that are not in the same cluster as the local queue manager. 3.

If less than one remote instance of a queue remains, include all MQCHS_REQUESTING, MQCHS_PAUSED and MQCHS_STOPPED channels. 10. If more than one remote instance of a queue remains and the message is a cluster PCF message, choose locally defined CLUSSDR channels. 11. If more than one remote instance of a queue remains to any queue manager, choose channels with the highest NETPRTY to each queue manager. 12.

This of course fails (unless you just happen to be passing a 1 or 0 byte message!!) with a truncation failure. The class then resizes its internal buffer and retries the MQGET call, and since the buffer is now large enough the message is retrieved. (BTW, the ActiveX classes do the same thing, but they start with a 2K buffer). The problem with the .NET classes is that after the first MQGET call the MQMD-CCSID field has been updated with the value from the message - which is the value from the mainframe queue manager. When the second call is made, this field is not reinitialized. This tells MQ to convert the data into the code page from the mainframe. Since the data is already in this code page, no conversion takes place. One way to work around this problem is to instruct the class to use a bigger default buffer size. You do this on the put method. For example, to use a 5000 byte buffer in VB.NET code the following myQueue.Get(myMsg, myGMO, 5000) This does, however, require you to know what the largest size message will be.

We ran into a problem with data conversion. The data coming from mainframe going to distributed, is not being converted to ASCII. Is any one else using this support pack and can share the experience with us? Thank you.

Re: Client and server configuration
Just curious. What is the difference between 'client' in the server CD and the client from the support pack? Thanks, Ian -Original Message- From: Francois Van der Merwe1 [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 3 June 2003 7:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Client and server configuration Just to make this a little bit more clear. You MUST install the client that is on the SERVER CD. When you start installation from the server CD, one of the options is to also install the client code - use that.

But if you install the MQServer onto your machine, then you must install the MQClient from the CD. You cannot use the MQClient that you download as a Support Pack. If you install ONLY MQClient on a PC, then you can use either the client from the CD or the client from the support pack download page. -Original Message- From: Teresa Cheung [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 02, 2003 4:56 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Client and server configuration Can both have MQSeries client and sever software installed on the same operating system?
