IT22937: When ChlAuthEarlyAdopt is used the AMQ5534 message does not display the program name

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If authentication fails with the ChlauthEarlyAdopt=y parameter
  configured in the qm.ini file, the following AMQ5534 message
  appears in the queue manager error log files:
  
  AMQ5534: User ID '<userid>' authentication failed
  
  EXPLANATION:
  The user ID and password supplied by the '' program could not be
  authenticated.
  -------------------
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users of IBM MQ with queue managers configured with the
  "ChlauthEarlyAdopt=y" setting.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  When using the ChlauthEarlyAdopt setting, the authentication
  process occurs before the MQCONN process when the application
  name is flowed over the connection. Accordingly, the application
  name was blank when inserted into the message.
  

Problem conclusion

• When ChlauthEarlyAdopt is enabled, the application context at
  the point where the message is issued is the channel process
  (typically amqrmppa). To allow users to differentiate these
  errors from errors caused by locally-bound applications, if a
  more specific remote application name has not yet been supplied,
  the channel process name will now be displayed in this message
  instead of a blank string:
  
  AMQ5534: User ID '<userid>' authentication failed
  
  EXPLANATION:
  The user ID and password supplied by the 'amqrmppa' program
  could not be authenticated.
