I think that there is a big misunderstanding: MQ for Microsoft people stays for Missed Queue. -Messaggio originale- Da: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Inviato: lunedì 19 aprile 2004 8.24 A: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oggetto: Re: Microsoft MQ ([EMAIL PROTECTED]:20040419419 CENTROSIM)

I am watching this discussion with quite some interest since I thought the solution is quite simple, but now it looks otherwise. Have any of you guys tried to write a simple service that would read the messages from MSMQ and put them to WMQ and vice-versa. I think this is quite simple in .Net of

Hi Neil (and info for others) I finally figured out the problem and it's to do with TTL and you are absolutely right. The confusion that arised last night was - when I issued "nslookup" command it showed the revised IP address but MQ was still using old address (and I am not a guru on Solaris).

Hi Jim To my horror I can't find a command to stop/terminate/end the channel initiator (may be it's due to my Monday syndrome or there is no such facility) for non-z/OS platforms. I can kill the process, if that is what is called recycling. There one MQSC command called STOP CHINIT but that say v

WE had the same problem some time back and found that MQ was caching the IP address. If I remember correctly, we recycled the channel initiator and the address was resolved correctly. Cheers... Jim Nuckolls Adiraju, Rao wrote: Hi Neil If my understanding goes TTL is applicable at global level and

Hi Neil If my understanding goes TTL is applicable at global level and not at MQ manager level. As I mentioned in my original mail, when I look at the DNS resolution at SOLARIS level it is pointing to the latest IP address which confirms the TTL value is small and DNS alteration has been detected

Hi Rao, your initial problem description looks more like a DNS resolver problem than an MQ problem. Check with your network support people to find out what is the TTL (Time To Live) value for the specific DNS entry you are using. Default values for DNS can be several hours. Application programs w

Rao, My apologies. Do you have any monitoring on MQ? QPasa and Candle CC DE XP can be configured to hadle these failover situations. Nastel may also - just can't confirm from experience. The channel may have to be stopped/started to correct the ip issue. Maybe someone with a deeper understan

Chris Call me "Rao". The spoke is on Windows machine with MQ V5.3 CSD06. And I can't locate any "adoptmca" parameter on that platform. There is one for Z/OS but not for windows. I don't want to DELETE and re-DEFINE channels either because then channel sequence numbers will be out of whack. Chee

Adiraju, What kind of machine is at the other end of the channel? Could this be an adoptmca issue? Why not have a "failover" script cycle the channel when it fails? It could interogate the primary ip and secondary ip when the channel has a retry event trigger it. Then make a failover or alert y

Peter & Don Thanks for your suggestions. I am talking of this in a banking environment in production where most of time the MQ users are indirect users - such as Swift, Weblogic, CRM products etc.. and I don't have a clue what these products do in such error situations. Considering some messages c
