AW: AW: Queue Manager Autostart on Windows
Hi Peter, you are right, I did some more tests today: 1. When I came into my office today, I switched on my PC, booted it and logged in. The qmgr was DOWN. 2. Then I rebooted the PC and afterwards the qmgr was UP. 3. Now I shutted down my PC, switched it off and on again. The PC booted, I logged in and the qmgr was UP! 4. The last test was, to change the recovery attributes to default (1 minute delay) and reboot the PC again. Afterwards the qmgr was UP. This looks very strange to me. I have a very stupid idea - but it's windows. Maybe the reason is, that the date changes during stopping and starting MQ? Any other idea?

I modified the start-up of MQ services in the following way, and now it seems to work: 1. Right-click the qmgr in the MQ services and select Properties 2. Select something like Recovery (I have got a German version). 3. Now you can enter a delay for service restart and a number of tries.

MQ connect errors
Title: MQ connect errors I am trying to simulate a problem we currently have in production. This is what happens in production: A client application on Windows starts 10 instances of itself, connects to the same QM and the same queue at the same time. It then puts a message and disconnects. Some of the instances fail with a create object error. Its not native MQI calls and does not return MQ error codes. I asume that the create object error is either the creation of the queue or queue manager object, so it either fails on MQOPEN or MQCONNECT call. I tried to simulate this by running 20 apps that write 1000 messages to the same queue. First I create the loop around the MQOPEN/PUT/CLOSE calls. ie the app stays connected to the queue manager and then opens, puts and closes the 1000 times. This finished with no errors. Then I put the loop around MQCONN/OPEN/PUT/CLOSE/DISC and a few of them failed with 2059 errors. The error logs just give the ususal AMQ9202: Remote host 'w31873079 (10.36.137.79) (1414)' not available error. There is nothing in any other error logs or FDC files created. Can anyone explain this. Does the listener just fail to start up connections?

stackit
Anyone know how I can get hold of the shell script called stackit that IBM support ask to be used to get a stack print for running MQ processes? The reason I ask is that the version of Linux that one of our customers is running doesn't have the pstack command, and I assume that the shell script has some smarts to detect if pstack is available and use that if it is, and to invoke gdb -p pid and the bt sub-command if it isn't.

Re: MQ connect errors
Title: MQ connect errors Hi there, If your application does not use native MQI calls, then what is it? All of the Java-basedAPIs supplied by IBM provide access to the MQ Reason and Completion codes. I would think that the VB API would as well but I don't use it and don't know. Have you turned on all your event types?

Re: MQ connect errors
I have seen this when the load on the queue manager/server is at a high level because of the instances of the applications. When running a number of instances I have seen a potential possibility of a failure. Especially in a MCONN, MQOPEN, MQPUT, MQCLOSE, MQDISC. Also, depending on whether the instances are threads or process there could be an issue when each thread is doing a connection. Although its rare I have seen more problems with processes than threads. As for it stating a 'create object error' I don't recall getting that error, but then again it has been a while since I put a system under duress. One option you mention is a positive one. The second is to stagger each instance of an app, unless there is an actual need to create 50 instances of the application. Another is to verify that you have configured your client instances allowed for the queue manager. Unless the applications require a constant connection what you may want to do is create a pool of connections via a thread pool. It's simple, well not for everyone, and based on the number of instances required they can use the existing connections or if required additional connections within the pool can be made. One other suggestion is to put a timestamp before the MQCONN and one at MQDISC. Kick off 20-50 instances of the application at once and see where the delay is. If the applications are in a wait state to long it will actually fail. That I do know because I have reproduced that a number of times when doing high volume/client connections for WMQ. This is a bugger to track down, but you may need to try different configurations in order to determine the best route for application process, system load, thread or process, and so forth.

Re: MQ connect errors
Are these JAVA JMS apps? Are they doing DB work?? If you do not disconnect from the DB and MQ in the correct order the disconnect from MQ does not complete. So you could be accumulating your open connections to the point that you run out. Do a dis chs and see how many outstanding connections you have as the apps are running. See if they are growing. Maybe and probably your apps have a coding error and are not init-ing something in the connection loop. bobbee From: Faizel Sedick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: MQSeries List [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: MQ connect errors Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2004 17:01:14 +0200 What I meant was that the actual app does not return MQ error codes.

Clustering question regarding communications (MQ 5.3 on z/OS 1.2)
I've come across an issue regarding the CONNAME that is made 'public' in the CLUSRCVR definition. As you all know, the value will be stored in the repositories and used by any qmgr's joining the cluster to create an auto-defined CLUSSDR channel as needed. We have internal (inside of our firewall) qmgrs in the cluster, as well as external (outside of our firewall) qmgrs in the cluster. Here's my concern: The IP address specified in the CONNAME of the CLUSRCVR definition needs to serve: qmgrs inside the firewall, who use an internal un'NAT'd address AND qmgrs outside of the firewall who need to use an external NAT'd address In a nutshell, I have one place to specify 2 addresses. I know using the DNS name would be a possible remedy, however, certain external clients are reluctant to use the DNS name - they require an actual IP address. I'm assuming someone else has run into this scenario - clustering with qmgrs in the cluster that are internal and external... Thanks in advance.

Re: Clustering question regarding communications (MQ 5.3 on z/OS 1.2)
Mike, Since we don't have a really good cluster channel exit, we don't let external vendors into our main cluster. Too much ability to send cluster definitions down the pipeline and get them implemented automagically. We also don't like to setup a firewall rule that allows them to access multiple QMgrs on our side. Tootough to have to harden all those QMgrs. Instead, we set them upwith point-to-point channelsto a gateway server that is in the cluster but does not house the cluster queues. A cluster alias then insures the messages get round-robined as expected. But if you are going to play with clusters through the firewall, whatever you use in the CONNAME MUST resolve on both sides. -- T.Rob -Original Message-From: Mike Davidson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Friday, January 23, 2004 1:09 PMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: Clustering question regarding communications (MQ 5.3 on z/OS 1.2)I've come across an issue regarding the CONNAME that is made 'public' in the CLUSRCVR definition.

WMQI Fail / Catch queues preventing MQRCs
If you leave the CATCH / FAIL queue unwired, and the flow has a problem with putting to the Output queue, the message gets thrown to the DLQ, where you can see the Reason code. And Event Viewer shows you the info of the failure as well. But if you do the right thing, and wire the CATCH/FAIL nodes to capture your messages, there is no record of what went wrong. Messages pile up in the CATCH/FAIL queues, and you are left scratching your head as to why, since there is no MQRC anywhere, and Event Viewer stops giving useful info. Any way to get around this?
