MQ question
Hello there!! I would like to know if anyone knows about any Forums for discussing Websphere MQ on ZOS platform. I am a CICS systems Programmer and would want to extend my knowledge on MQ as well. Taking a new role :) Can someone guide me please ??

MQ question
Can some one point me to a MQ discussion list similar to this ( if there is one ) We're seeing something odd with regard to MQSeries. We put a display into a program to show the status of the input queue when the close is done after the get. During our testing we are getting a 2033 return code which indicates that there is no message in the queue. and am trying to find out if anyone is aware of anything that might cause an empty queue to continue triggering transactions over and over again? -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html

Re: MQ question
Hi August, Please go through the link http://www.mqseries.net/, it has a forum/ list to discuss & also has got a lot of technical resources with regard to MQ.

We see this quite a number of times. It is the process that is putting the message that takes time to commit it. The trigger event is created the moment the message arrives in the queue. The trigger monitor invokes the process-to-be-triggered immediately. If the consuming process is quicker to start up than the producing process is committing the message, the consuming process will not get hold of the message and will get a 2033 reason code. Try doing a get with wait (for just a tiny amount of time). Obviously, if the producing process decides to roll back the message, the consuming process will never get it. But will still get triggered...

Probably a basic MQ question
Hi list, I know very little about MQSeries except that I'm having a problem with it and I don't know enough about it to even know where to look next. We are running MQ 5.3.1 on z/OS 1.7. According to a DISPLAY ARCHIVE command, I have the ARCRETN period set to 5 days. We discovered that for some reason, MQ isn't deleting older archive datasets. It has archive datasets going back to September 19. According to a DISPLAY USAGE command, the RBA that I would need to go back to for recovery is from today, within the current ARCHIVE dataset. Until I manually deleted a bunch of the oldest ARCHIVE datasets, we had over 230 generations of archives on the system. These are not on SMS managed packs so there shouldn't be any contention with SMS constructs keeping them around. Even if they were on SMS packs, according to the manual, the archives should only be kept around as long as the shorter of the two retentions. How do I get MQ to start cleaning up after itself again? Where do I even look to figure out what is going wrong?

Re: Probably a basic MQ question
We've seen this before. It means that MQ thinks there is something it needs to keep track of from that date. It could be a dead or orphaned message. Try re-cycling (stop/start) the queue manager to free up the datasets, and then manually delete the datasets (if MQ hasn't). If the re-cycle doesn't do it, try poking around the queues to see if there is a stale message causing the archieve logs to be held for so long. There are lots of tools around - IBM has free downloads available. -- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
