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

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.

Re: A channel problem
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. Cheers, P.

Channel problem
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.

Re: Channel problem
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
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.

Re: Channel problem
Edward, all I did for the immediate problem was increase the maxdepth for the DLQ and restart the channel. Then had the programmer fix the original problem (app had a typo in the REplyToQ name). But likely you've done that kind of thing already; I'd look at the suggestions from others... -Original Message- From: Edward Pius [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 17, 2003 2:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Channel problem Yes, the messages get to the DLQ.

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 -Original Message- From: Edward Pius [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 17, 2003 1:29 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Channel problem 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.

Convert on channel problem
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 ?

Re: Convert on channel problem
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
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' ?

Re: Channel problem
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.

Sundari 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.

Re: Channel problem
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.
