Will do Rainer. Just confirming, I should send zipped debug logs to this list or is there a private email address you prefer? Also, I ran debug on an existing system moments ago - a system that currently has several of these "stuck" failqueue logfiles. Want to make sure that will give you what you need or if I need to start over, simulate a central loghost outage and grab that information? If the former, I have what you need and will send once I get confirm on location to send. The latter will take some time so I can simulate worthwhile test. Thx.
