This happens at a checkpoint if nobody has the queue open and it has contained no msgs for the previous 2 checkpoints, or at qmgr shutdown." -----Original Message----- From: MQSeries List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 15, 2004 3:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: 'q' file resize Issue a clear queue command on the empty queue, but the queue cannot be opened elsewhere. Jeff A Tressler <[EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > cc: Sent by: MQSeries Subject: 'q' file resize List <[EMAIL PROTECTED] n.ac.at> 11/15/2004 03:13 PM Please respond to MQSeries List We have a disk drive full and it is all due to two files. These are the 'q' files that store the actual messages. The queue depth has finally reached zero but these q files still are taking a lot of disk space. I beleive these file will be resized to a more appropriate size but dont know how often this occurs. Does anyone have any ideas?
