Subject:WMQIv2 shutdown problem



Hi,

We have just upgraded an our MQSi system to WMQSI and have noticed a small problem which has stumped us a little. We have a broker and it just won't shut down the 1st execution Group (ie the default execution group). It will shut down all the others but never that one.All we get is an error in the syslog saying:

syslog snip
WMQIv210[4270]: (TEST_BROKER)[772]BIP2804E: The broker has detected that Execution Group Services, process ID 41542, has not shutdown. : TEST_BROKER.agent: /build/S210_P/src/AdminAgent/ImbAdminStore.cpp: 606: ImbAdminStore::FindAndReportAllLongRunningProcesses: : 
Once we issue a kill command on this process the broker shuts down not a problem and the mqsistop command returns the normal message: BIP8061I: Successful comamnd completion.

The software revisions are
WMQSI 2.1 csd04
MQ 5.2 csd 05
DB2 UDB 7.2
AIX 4.3.3.0 RML 10
Hardware is
IBM RS/6000 pSeries 6C1

Any help would be greatly apreciated.

Re: V5.3/V5.3.1 etc

Hi there,

Our Windows 2000 memo.ptf say it has no CSD applied, I'm assuming we have an old media package. What is the best way of getting hold of the CSD that we need to apply? When is CSD2 expected?

Thanks,

Great explanation, this helps a great deal. I am still concerned about mqver. Here is the output I get on both my Windows 2000 and Linux machines. Note that my Windows 2000 memo.ptf says it has CSD 1 but Linux says no CSD applied:

How can I tell the CSD applied with this? To me it is gibberish.

V5.3/V5.3.1 etc

Let me make one thing very clear: there is NO SUCH THING as V5.3.1

For a brief time, the download images were labelled that way, but it was
quickly corrected to say V5.3.0.1. That extra zero makes all the
difference.

The first tranche of V5.3 platforms were shipped mid-year, and we often
refer to those as the GA1 release.

Testing then continued on the extra platforms (Linux, OS/400) and a number
of fixes were made in cross-platform code. So, when the second set was
released (GA2) it made sense to refresh the manufacturing images of the
original set of platforms at the same time, so they were all at exactly the
same level. New shipments of the original platforms will all, in effect,
have CSD01 pre-applied.

However you could also get the same set of code by applying CSD01 to a GA1
platform. You will see the CSD level included in inventory commands such as
lslpp on AIX, wherever that's possible.

Two minor complications: CSD01 isn't separately downloadable at the moment,
because of a hitch dealing with the fact that it contains crypto code. We
are trying to sort that out urgently. (I believe some people have been sent
it directly, but can't be sure of that.)
And if you want to install on Windows XP you must get the new level, as the
earlier install code (which of course cannot be updated by CSD) explicitly
refused to allow you to put it on XP.

But when CSD02 arrives, you will be able to install it on top of a GA1
package, a GA2 package or a GA1+CSD01 package.

CICS Bridge Start

Well, I'm verturing into another new subsystem and wondered if anyone is

automated operator-type software.  Just curious
to know what others are doing.  Thanks!

Re: WMQIv2 shutdown problem

2002-12-04 Thread Heus, M. - SPLXM
Hi,

We regularly see this problem on our development Broker. It usually occurs
after a deploy and results in the execution group using a large amount of
CPU.  On our Production Broker we sometimes see each flow disconnecting from
it's queue (without any error/message from WMQI). In both cases the agent no
longer has control over the ExecGroup and only a cancel and restart will
help.

We've got two open PMR's at IBM, but so far no solution or even a hint to
what might be the cause...

Re: Large record size

2002-12-04 Thread Bright, Frank
Lissette,

We had a similar challenge recently on OS/390.  In addition to Bob's
comments below and others, the most limiting factor I found by far is
logging because of the persistence.  You will not be able to go any faster
than the logging speeds of your disk.  There is a support pac, MP16, that
can offer you some help in understanding these issues. I suggest you read it
and focus on the performance aspects of logging (e.g. Upper bound on
persistent message capacity - DASD log data rate).  Good luck.

Thanks

to an Windows frontend server farm where the data was parsed and applied to
a data warehouse. When we were sending those messages persistent and one at
a  time the amount of time was substantial. Granted there may have been
network considerations. BUTwe blocked those messages into 4mb blocks and
the destination dissasembled them. When we switched to blocking the messages
the time to deliver was reduced SUBSTANTIALLY!!! This option is not always
available. But if it is you may want to consider using it. Try to run some
performance test of the throughput. This could be done without a sweat by
modifing one of the supplied example programs (amqsput) to do a loop and
changing the message size.

Hi Lizette,
what exactly is your concern? Is it amount of data or number of
messages? Or both...?
Generally speaking, 1k is not really a big message. If you add the message
descriptor and transmission header (roughly 450 bytes), you are talking
about approc. 1500 bytes per message. If you look at the performance
support
pacs you will see that this is the average message size at which MQ
throughput peaks, so I wouldn't worry about the size (it doesn't matter
anyway, they say). ;-)
Assuming you have enough disk space everywhere the messages touch a disk
(XMITQ on /390, target queue on Win2K) and your log files are sufficiently
defined, you should be fine. The real challenge will be to convince your
programmer not to try to send all 900.000 messages in ONE unit of work, but
to do frequent commits ;-)
There is a queue manager parameter that limits the number of uncommited
messages (I think on 390 its called MAXSMSGS), that will limit how many
messages the application can put within a syncpoint. It is a good practice
to design applications so that they can make use of 'reasonable' batch
sizes
(preferably configurable) so this limit is not reached (it causes an
MQCC_FAILED with MQRC_BACKED_OUT, I think). Remember, the MCA on the
mainframe will not even see the messages (and start transmitting them)
until
the application calls MQCMIT. I am assuming that they are put using
MQPM_SYNCPOINT; first of all because they are persistent, secondly because
it's the default on /390.
Bottom line: I would be more concerned about a tunable design, using a
configurable application batch size, than about sheer volume. Other
opinions/aspects/remarks out there?
Hope it helps a bit,
Stefan

Re: CICS Bridge Start

2002-12-04 Thread Bullock, Rebecca (CSC)
Jill, no, we don't use the 3270 Bridge, but that's not relevant to your
general question on how to start something up in CICS.

How about using a sequential terminal? That's how we start up some stuff (or
at least, I know for a fact that we used to do it that way). The CICS guy
says we still do, so I guess it's still around (CICS TS 1.3)). And that way,
you're not tying up a real terminal.

Of course, you could try something fancier like an MPF exit fired up by one
of the CICS startup messages (no automation package required for MPF, but
you have to write the exit). Or maybe a PLTSI. But the sequential terminal
is an easy approach.

I need help sizing a server to handle the following:

We need to size a server which is connected to a frame relay connected to a
external call center on
one side and MVS querying DB2 on the inhouse side.   This server/QManager
will essentially be a router of sorts
between this outside queue manager and our inside MVS queue manager.
It will need to be able to handle 95,000 request messages at 13 bytes
(+header), 95,000 reply message with
65% of them being 171 bytes, 5% at 1 byte and 30% at 511 bytes.
Additionally, another group of messages coming in at 171 bytes at the same
rate of 95k per hour.  Although with
this group, we were also thinking of batching these up to where we could
send larger messages at 60 per hour.

We are thinking a smaller sized Unix server would work fine, or maybe an NT
server.

Re: CICS Bridge Start

2002-12-04 Thread Miller, Dennis
CKBR needn't tie up a terminal; you can start it any number of ways without a terminal 
resource attached. Trigger on first, works quite nicely since CKBR will then start/end 
dynamically in response to message traffic.

 Subject:   CICS Bridge Start
 
 Hello MQ Listers,
 
 Well, I'm verturing into another new subsystem and wondered if anyone is
 using the MQ-CICS 3270 Bridge?   If so, how are
 you starting it?  If the CKBR transaction ties up a terminal until the
 monitor ends, sounds like a bad choice.  I prefer not to
 have an operator have to issue a transaction to start it, and we don't have
 automated operator-type software.  Just curious
 to know what others are doing.  Thanks!

Re: problem with MO12 support pack

2002-12-04 Thread Bruce Giordano

I was using the Starttool product to display the module.  Looking into this
further, it appears that the file transfer product we are using has
problems with PDSE libraries.  I tried transmitting the PDSSEQ library to
the system I was working on and issuing the receive there and no longer
encountered this problem.  Thanks for your help.

  Please respond to MQSeries List






This message is generated, by the Loader, when it detects a PDS directory
entry for the entry/alias/whatever it is being asked to bring into storage
that is not that of a load module.

It is possible for a library/load-module PDS to contain a bad directory
entry, but are you sure you are not asking the Loader to bring a source
module, object module or the like into storage?

You say that the module CCP1LRPL 'looks OK' when you list it.  How are you
doing this and what are you seeing?   In particular, are you looking at the
library that the loader is trying to use?

MQ under transaction server 1.3

2002-12-04 Thread Anderson, Lizette T. (RyTull)
We are running MQSeries for OS/390 5.2.  Are there any known problems with
running MQSeries under transaction server 1.3?

Re: MQ under transaction server 1.3

2002-12-04 Thread Bullock, Rebecca (CSC)
Lizette, we are running TS 1.3 and MQ V5.2. We've had no problems, but I'd
check PSP buckets for anything critical that may need to go on. You know,
SOP stuff :-)

Re: V5.3/V5.3.1 etc

2002-12-04 Thread Michael F Murphy/AZ/US/MQSolutions
On this I have answers from IBM.
1) The CMVC level is a build date. It is year, month, day. So where you see L021011 is 2002-10-11. Thanks James Kingdon.
2) IBM support tells me they acknowledge this is not the way mqver should work. There isn't a PMR on it but they will fix it probably in CSD 2. No official word on that, just an unofficial response. They don't know when CSD 1 will be available for download. There are problems with that version of the CSD.
Anyhoo, I am going to start upgrading servers in development environments for my client and see what happens.

Re: V5.3/V5.3.1 etc

Great explanation, this helps a great deal. I am still concerned about mqver. Here is the output I get on both my Windows 2000 and Linux machines. Note that my Windows 2000 memo.ptf says it has CSD 1 but Linux says no CSD applied:
Name:WebSphere MQ Version:   530 CMVC level: p000-L021011 BuildType:  IKAP - (Production)
How can I tell the CSD applied with this? To me it is gibberish.

Subject:

V5.3/V5.3.1 etcLet me make one thing very clear: there is NO SUCH THING as V5.3.1

For a brief time, the download images were labelled that way, but it was
quickly corrected to say V5.3.0.1. That extra zero makes all the
difference.

The first tranche of V5.3 platforms were shipped mid-year, and we often
refer to those as the GA1 release.

Testing then continued on the extra platforms (Linux, OS/400) and a number
of fixes were made in cross-platform code. So, when the second set was
released ("GA2") it made sense to refresh the manufacturing images of the
original set of platforms at the same time, so they were all at exactly the
same level. New shipments of the original platforms will all, in effect,
have CSD01 pre-applied.

However you could also get the same set of code by applying CSD01 to a GA1
platform. You will see the CSD level included in inventory commands such as
lslpp on AIX, wherever that's possible.

Two minor complications: CSD01 isn't separately downloadable at the moment,
because of a hitch dealing with the fact that it contains crypto code. We
are trying to sort that out urgently. (I believe some people have been sent
it directly, but can't be sure of that.)
And if you want to install on Windows XP you must get the new level, as the
earlier install code (which of course cannot be updated by CSD) explicitly
refused to allow you to put it on XP.

But when CSD02 arrives, you will be able to install it on top of a GA1
package, a GA2 package or a GA1+CSD01 package.

Mark Taylor.
