When here:

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/BOOKS/iea2h7b0/2.442

which pointed me, eventually, to here:

http://publibz.boulder.ibm.com/cgi-bin/bookmgr_OS390/XKS/CSZXKS00

but I then was forced to download a PDF to read the Diagnosis Guide. 
<quote>
 If a problem with WebSphere MQ for z/OS itself causes an abend, an abend
code of X'5C6' or X'6C6' is returned, along with an abend reason code. This
uniquely describes the cause of the problem. Refer to "WebSphere MQ for z/OS
abends" on page 52 for information about the abend codes, and see the
WebSphere MQ for z/OS Messages and Codes manual for an explanation of the
reason code.

Which told me to read the Messages and Codes manual. Which succinctly said:

<quote>

WebSphere MQ uses two system completion codes:
X'5C6' This code indicates that WebSphere MQ has detected an internal error, and
has terminated a WebSphere MQ internal task, or a user-connected task,
abnormally. Errors associated with an X'5C6' system completion code
might be preceded by a z/OS system code, or by internal errors.
To determine the source of the error that resulted in a subsequent task or
queue manager termination, examine the diagnostic material generated by
the X'5C6' abend.

Which boils down to "read the dump". Which is about a useless a message as I've 
ever read. 
Why don't they just say "Call the support center. We think you're too ignorant 
to understand how to fix this."
