Gunilla,

If I understand you correctly what you're saying is that when your channel has a 
network problem the sender channel tries to reconnect but the receiver channel hasn't 
yet realised that there is a network problem since it is still sitting in a TCP/IP 
recv().

The solution to this problem is to use AdoptMCA. You can configure your server to say 
that if a new connection is made over the same channel from the same QM and from the 
same IP address that the previous instance of the channel should be terminated.

Hi!


We have a lot of qmanagers and they are in different nets with firewalls between. When 
there is some problem kind of net problem we get channel problem.


The receiving side don't understand that the sender side is off. So the receiver is 
running and when the sender tries to connect it only


get in to retry state. We don't have this kind of problem with qmanagers in the same 
net.


Someone that have any ideas?

On windows it is found on the channels tab on the queue manager properties
using mq services. On unix it would be put in the queue managers qm.ini

Sender channel problem

2004-03-25 Thread Enrico Strydom



Hi
all,

I have a problem
with a sender channel not staying up, and I cannot figure out why.
QM1 =
TLINKTT.QMAN, runs on W2K, MQ5.3, CSD06
QM2 =
NADCRISPT.QMAN runs on HPUX, MQ5.2, CSD05
I have other
HPUX queue managers with the same specs connecting fine (to QM1), so I do not
think it has anything to do with the MQ5.3/MQ5.2 differences


sender
TLTT.TO.NADCRISPT (on QM1) starts up nicely, runs perfectly
sender
NADCRISPT.TO.TLTT (on QM2) keeps on giving errors

It looks like it
comes up long enough to start the receiver channel (NADCRISPT.TO.TLTT) on QM1,
then gets some error and goes into retrying state. The receiver on QM1 stays
running which explains the "channel in use" errors I see in QM2's error
log

Deleting all the messages from the XMIT queue on QM2
seems to fix the problem for a while(few minutes). The channel stays up long
enough to let a few messages flow(numbers vary between 6 and
14)before the channel dies/goes to
retry and whole problem repeats itself.
The
sender/receiver pair from QM1 to QM2 in the meantime is up and messages flow
normally(which I assume means that it is not related to "bad connection"
problems)


I attach the
relevant parts from both QM's error logs- hope someone can
help
Regards
Enrico
Strydom
Perago

PS - I checked
all of the parms on both senders, receivers  XMit queues - no differences
in BATCHSZ, DISCINT, etc . . .

Once the channel has gone into a retrying
state, stop both sides, look at the backout count of the first message on the
XMITQ, if it is  0, there is something wrong with the message you sending,

Hi Enrico,

Here is what I would do to start with (not knowing all
the details about your prob):

1- On both queue managers set the ADOPT NEW MCA (ALL)
2- Stop the channels on both ends
3- Start the receiver on QM1
4- (Make sure step 3 is done first)Start the sender on
QM2
5- Send some messages from QM2

Let us know what happens.

Ruzi

I checked all other error logs and there are no additonal errors. I dont
have direct access to the OS/390 system and must go through a couple of
people to get information.

The channel (JESTER./QUQ1) still works, the only difference besides the
name if the port is 1414. The dns name is the same for both channels.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Jeff Tressler

Jeff,


Error message ...

AMQ9209: Connection to host 'muqz (xxx)' closed.

means that the 'other side' has closed your connection so you really need
to look at the OS/390 end to find out why. On this side of the fence all we
know is that someone closed the socket we were using so there's no extra
information we can give in the HP error logs.

The most common reason for something like this is that you've misconfigured
the hostname and port and you've connected to something but it isn't being
used by WMQ. I would double check that you really do have a listener
started on z/OS listening on 1418. If you do then there should be some form
of message in the WMQ console on 390 telling you why the connection was
dropped.

Channel problem

2003-03-17 Thread Edward Pius
Hello,

I have a very interesting situation. One of the applications using MQ forgot 
to service the queue (meaning GET ing messages from the queue). Hence, the queue 
filled up. But instead of trying to put the excess messages in the DLQ on the 
receiving side, it started filling up the transmit queue. Also, one of the side 
effects is that other applications using the same transmit queue were temporarily out 
of commission. I have also seen the receiver channel on the GET ing side pause.

Has anybody come across this problem? The version of MQ is 5.2 with CSD05 on 
Windows 2000 cluster. Most of the times in order to solve the crisis what we have done 
is to stop and start MQ (which drains the messages in the queue which filled up) and 
everything starts to work fine.

What am I missing here

In appreciation,

Edward Pius.

Edward, are you sure that some of the messages didn't go to the DLQ on the
other end of your channel? I've seen this happen when the DLQ over there
gets full; the channel stops and the messages start to build up in the
transmission queue until it, too, is full. At least, I think that's what I
remember happening, but it's been quite a while, so my memory may be a bit
off. -- Rebecca

Also make sure that the receiving QM does in fact know that it has a DLQ.
Just because a DLQ is defined in not enough. The QM  DLQ attribute needs to

Edward, are you sure that some of the messages didn't go to the DLQ on the
other end of your channel? I've seen this happen when the DLQ over there
gets full; the channel stops and the messages start to build up in the
transmission queue until it, too, is full. At least, I think that's what I
remember happening, but it's been quite a while, so my memory may be a bit
off. -- Rebecca

Hello,

I have a very interesting situation. One of the applications using
MQ forgot to service the queue (meaning GET ing messages from the queue).
Hence, the queue filled up. But instead of trying to put the excess messages
in the DLQ on the receiving side, it started filling up the transmit queue.
Also, one of the side effects is that other applications using the same
transmit queue were temporarily out of commission. I have also seen the
receiver channel on the GET ing side pause.

Has anybody come across this problem? The version of MQ is 5.2 with
CSD05 on Windows 2000 cluster. Most of the times in order to solve the
crisis what we have done is to stop and start MQ (which drains the messages
in the queue which filled up) and everything starts to work fine.

What am I missing here

In appreciation,

Edward Pius.

Re: Channel problem

2003-03-17 Thread EXT-Makhija, Arun
Edward

My 2 cents:
Do you have DLQ DEFINED on the Receiving side and is PUT ENABLED and has sufficient 
MAXDEPTH
as in that case your channels will shut down and Xmit Queue will be filled up
you mentioned 

Hence, the queue filled up. 

which queue are you talking about, one on the recv side or the Xmit queue

On restart of MQ the queue probably cleans up as the mesgs are non-persistent

How about the status o the SDR Channel ?

Re: Channel problem

2003-03-17 Thread Jim Ford
This behavior is no doubt caused by the MRRTY and MRTMR parameters on
the receiver channel's definition. The channel will pause MRTMR
milliseconds, and then retry. This repeats MRRTY times, or until the
put is successful. I'm not sure what the defaults are for the
parameters, but they are sufficiently high to cause the behavior
you're seeing.

We first saw this when a destination application queue was either full
or put disabled, I forget which. The channel slowed done quite a bit
as a result. Once we understood the parameters we decided to change
all of our receiver channels to MRRTY(0), thereby disabling retrying.

Convert on channel problem

2003-02-12 Thread Wesley Shaw
I have a remote queue definition on MVS which is pointed at a remote queue
definition on a Solaris server which is then pointed to a local queue on
another Solaris Server.

On sender channel on MVS, I have convert set to yes.  This is how we send
to
all of our distributed server. The sender channel going from the solaris
server to the
final solaris server has convert set to no.

Problem:

When the message gets to the third queue manager, our gets get a 2110
return code
and the message is not readable.

How should this be configured ?

- The message contains data that is not consistent with the format

Re: Convert on channel problem

2003-02-12 Thread Kevin Tobin

Wesley

It's actually bad practice to do conversions on channels ( unless you really have to ).

The best practice is receiver makes good.

i.e. The receiving application specifies conversion on the get. ( MQGMO_CONVERT)

By doing this- the sender can be any application on any platform and your receiving application
will always correctly do the conversion ( provided it has the relevant codepage available).

With regard to your problem ... do you have the relevant codepage for the solaris box installed
on your MVS system?


Cheers!

Kevin




Re: Channel problem

2002-08-02 Thread Ganapathy, Sundari (Cognizant)

Emile, Rebecca,
I have not changed the expiry attribute, I mean that I am not explicitly
changing the expiry attribute of the message in my application program. I
think the default is unlimited expiry time.
Do I have to set it to something so that messages remain ?

Plus, today we changed a few attributes of the transmission queue. We set
the trigger type to F and also set the inititation queue to
SYSTEM.CHANNEL.INITQ so that once a message is received in the transmission
queue the Channel is started from its inactive state.

But still there is some problem when we stop and restart a channel. Messages
just disappear. They are not found on the DLQ either.

Paul,
Can you explain what you mean by 'trace the channel' ?

Sundari

Yes, persistence is used when the QMGR needs to recover the queue.
If the messages had an expiry time, the QMGR will discard them when the

Do you have default DLQ assigned to the QMGR?

Paul,
Can you explain what you mean by 'trace the channel' ?

Regards
Sundari

Sundari,

All I was suggesting was that if you really want to know what the channel
did you can switch on MQ trace. This goes for any MQI application. Switch
trace on with a command like strmqtrc -t detail -t all. run your test and
then end trace and you'll have a trace file for each process that did MQ
work. One of them will be the amqcrsta channel process. The exact commands
for switching trace on. formatting the files etc change depending on the
platform.

If you can't understand the trace files then you can send them to me if you
like and I'll take a look.

Hope this helps,
P.

we noticed the problem we re-started the channel and found that the
messages
were not there. The messages are not persistant.
I thought message persistance was required only when the queue manager
itself goes down. Correct me if I am wrong. We are checking the DLQ.

Queue was inactive not stopped.

Sundari,

If the channel is NPMSPEED(FAST) then the channel will make best effort to
store a non-persistent message but if it can't, for example queue full or
no authority, then the message will be thrown away. You can, of course,
trace the channel and see exactly what it does with each of your messages.

Cheers,
P.

Sundari, could the missing messages have expired while on the queue? They're
not actually deleted until you try to read them (and on OS/390, it takes a
destructive read, not a browse). When you start the channel, the channel
agent will start reading the messages and that would delete the expired
messages. Just a thought -- Rebecca

Two things here. When you say stopped do you meen inactive or stopped? Are

Subject: Channel problem


Hi
We are writing COBOL API that runs on OS/390 and places messages on queues
running on AIX. I had mailed the problem to the listers already yesterday
and now I have the problem much more well defined. Hope someone can help.

When the sender channel is running and my application program places
messages in the queue all goes fine.

When the sender channel is stopped and my application program places
messages all the messages get accumulated in the XMITQ.

When I restart the sender channel the first two messages alone are logged
into the remote queue. The rest of the messages are lost.

Actually someone over here suggested that the message ids of the rest of the
messages are lost and that is why the messages are lost and they said the MQ
administrator should be able to log message ids into some buffer area if the
channel is not running. Do you have any more suggestions on this ?

Regards
Sundari
