Error description
When using WebSphere MQ (WMQ) v7.0.1.0 or v7.0.1.1 to create a connection factory (CF) which uses a connection name list, an attempt to connect to a queue manager using that connection factory with a client that is prior to MQ v7.0.1.0 will fail. The hostname in the connection list is not used. The error message identifies "localhost" instead of the hostname. The error will look similar to this: Initial context found! javax.jms.JMSException: MQJMS2005: failed to create MQQueueManager for 'localhost:'. Inner exception(s): com.ibm.mq.MQException: MQJE001: Completion Code '2', Reason '2059'. com.ibm.mq.jmqi.JmqiException: CC=2;RC=2059; AMQ9204: Connection to host 'localhost(1414)' rejected.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: This issue affects users of the WMQ classes for Java Message Service (JMS) who create a connection factory JNDI definition at WMQ v7.0.1.0 or v7.0.1.1. The 'client' transport type is used and the CONNECTIONNAMELIST specifies connection details other than localhost(1414). The connection factory definition is subsequently used by a WMQ Client earlier than 7.0.1.0. Platforms affected: All Distributed (iSeries, all Unix and Windows) +Java **************************************************************** PROBLEM SUMMARY: From WMQ v7.0.1.0, the CONNECTIONNAMELIST property on the connection factory was introduced as part of the Automatic client reconnection functionality. This property replaced the HOSTNAME and PORT properties which were previously used to specify connection details, although the HOSTNAME and PORT properties still exist for backward compatibility. When creating a connection factory and specifying a CONNECTIONNAMELIST, the HOSTNAME and PORT properties were left at their default values of "localhost" "1414". When a client which doesn't recognise the CONNECTIONNAMELIST property (i.e. pre v7.0.1.0) used the connection factory, it read the HOSTNAME/PORT fields and so tried to connect to localhost(1414).
Problem conclusion
When setting the CONNECTIONNAMELIST, the first entry in the list is copied to the HOSTNAME and PORT fields. This enables older clients to use the same connection details that have been set in the CONNECTIONNAMELIST. If the HOSTNAME/PORT fields are modified by a pre v7.0.1.0 client, a client containing this fix will copy the HOSTNAME/PORT values into the first CONNECTIONNAMELIST entry when it loads the connection factory. By doing this, the first entry in CONNECTIONNAMELIST and the values in HOSTNAME/PORT will always be in sync. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: v7.0 Platform Fix Pack 7.0.1.2 -------- -------------------- Windows U200316 AIX U829807 HP-UX (PA-RISC) U829678 HP-UX (Itanium) U829681 Solaris (SPARC) U829806 Solaris (x86-64) U829680 iSeries tbc_p700_0_1_2 Linux (x86) U829677 Linux (x86-64) U829676 Linux (zSeries) U829682 Linux (Power) U829679 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from 'WebSphere MQ Recommended Fixes' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006037 If the maintenance level is not yet available, information on its planned availability can be found in 'WebSphere MQ Planned Maintenance Release Dates' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006309 ---------------------------------------------------------------
