Some of us would like to hear you (all presenters) speak for much longer at
this session. This is one of the highlights of the conference for me.
Whether or not you announce something I've been waiting for, I still

I've noticed, just starting last week, that two different MQ servers, via
Windows Terminal Services client, show the MQ service icon (in the lower
right corner of Windows) shows a down red arrow when in fact the queue

We have the UNIX version, and I may be totally wrong, but I think the
'gateway' for MQSeries was really a directory monitor that could trigger a
program when a file showed up.. Again, I could be wrong.. We used MQSeries
to communicate between os/390 applications and the unix GENTRAN system. MQ

How do people simulate/perform volume testing of MQ roundtrips that start
and end in CICS? Messages go to Windows and back. We want to simulate CICS
transactions that send one message at a time, so each iteration would do an

Is there a way, without having 100 people sitting at 100 CICS
I created an app that did an MQGET w/SYNC and then did an MQBACK, and did
both of those operations within a loop a number of times equal to a parm I

Yes I'm sure you are right. There is no MQ users group in my area. I don't

prioritizing and forwarding such requests to IBM.

I'm not an expert in C, and there is probably a better way of writing this,
but this works for me (similar to your assignment statement):
strncpy(od.ObjectName,queue,MQ_Q_NAME_LENGTH);
where od is declared previously with:
MQOD od = {MQOD_DEFAULT};/* Object Descriptor */
