IT22706: Running strmqm -r against queue manager reports incorrect media recovery extent name in AMQ7468 message

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The strmqm -r command starts the queue manager for replay the
  log files to update the
  manager. After completion of the replay the queue manager
  displays the log extents
  required for queue manager restart recovery and media recovery.
  The queue manager
  also logs the information in the queue manger log files. The log
  extent displayed for
  media recovery was correct, but the log extent logged in the
  AMQ7468 message in the
  queue manager error logs was incorrect.
  
  Output from strmqm -r:
  
  strmqm -r QMGR
  IBM MQ queue manager 'QMGR' is being started for replay.
  The queue manager is associated with installation
  'Installation1'.
  The oldest log file required to start queue manager QMGR is
  S0000006.LOG.
  The oldest log file required to perform media recovery of queue
  manager QMGR is S0000001.LOG.
  IBM MQ queue manager 'BACKUPQMGR' replay completed.
  
  Excerpt from error log:
  
  AMQ7468: The oldest log file required to perform media recovery
  of queue
  manager QMGR is S0000006.LOG.
  
  EXPLANATION:
  The log file S0000006.LOG contains the oldest log record
  required to recreate
  any of the objects from their media images. Any log files prior
  to this will
  not be accessed by media recovery operations.
  ACTION:
  Use this information together with the information in the most
  recent AMQ7467
  message. Archivable log files are all those older than BOTH
  S0000006.LOG and
  the log file mentioned in the AMQ7467 message.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users using a queue manager backup and running the strmqm -r
  command
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  This problem occurred because the queue manager logged the queue
  manager restart extent name instead of the media recovery extent
  name
   in the AMQ7468 message.
  

Problem conclusion

• The IBM MQ code has been modified to log the media recovery
  extent name in the AMQ7468 message.
