The latest service level is known as the -> MDV 7.0.1.10 <- set of PTFs.

You can verify your current service level by calling program DSPMQMVER using command CALL QMQM/DSPMQVER. The same information is visible in the prolog section of WebSphere MQ FDC reports.

For the latest set of PTFs, the corresponding data is:

DSPMQMVER:

Name . . . . . . . . . : WebSphere MQ

FDC Report: Build Date :- Apr 22 2013
FDC Report: CMVC level :- p701-110-130419

MDV 7.0.1.10 is a Fix Pack, which comprises twelve PTFs
- nine for the *BASE install option (library QMQM) (5724H72)
- one for install option 1 (library QMQMSAMP) (5724H72)
- two for the WebSphere MQ Java™/JMS for i5/OS product (5724L26)


PTF SI49190 has been designated as the 'marker' PTF for MDV 7.0.1.10.
Ordering a Group PTF will deliver a complete set of (twelve) PTFs.
Alternatively, ordering SI49190 will deliver all ten PTFs for product 5724H7206 and the two PTFs for product 5724L2620 (WebSphere MQ Java/JMS), if installed.
The complete set of Group PTFs comprises:
* SF99331 - i5/OS V5R3 - WebSphere MQ for i5/OS 7.0
* SF99332 - i5/OS V5R4 - WebSphere MQ for i5/OS 7.0
* SF99351 - IBM i V6R1 - WebSphere MQ for i5/OS 7.0
* SF99359 - IBM i V7R1 - WebSphere MQ for i5/OS 7.0

For option *BASE - you must apply ALL nine PTFs.
For option 1 - SI49195 (optional) will re-ship library QMQMSAMP
and directory /QIBM/ProdData/mqm/samp

If the MQ Server & MQ Java/JMS products are both installed
For WebSphere MQ Java - SI49190 MUST be applied as well as SI49200
For WebSphere MQ Java option 1 - SI49201 (optional) reships directory
/QIBM/ProdData/mqm/java/samples

.....................................................................

BEFORE UPDATING your WebSphere MQ service level, you -> MUST <- quiesce all Queue Manager activity. A suggested procedure is included in the PTF Special Instructions. With this Fix Pack it is especially important to clear up shared memory.

The latest set of PTFs incorporate a PTF exit program, which will
log error on apply PTF or remove PTF operation if subsystem QMQM is still
active or one or more Queue Manager jobs are still running.
Please ensure you have read and understood section 1.6 below
"Error messages logged by APYPTF or RMVPTF"

.....................................................................

BEFORE APPLYING the latest set of PTFs, you -> MUST <- remove any TESTFIXES which have been applied on top of the previous CSD.

.....................................................................

Users upgrading or installing WebSphere MQ, on a system with a PRIMARY LANGUAGE for which there is no MQSeries National Language Version ... PLEASE READ section "Installing translated versions" in Chapter 1 of the Quick Beginnings for i5/OS: http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv7/v7r0/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.mq.amqwac.doc/iq10120_.htm.

1.3 Product fix history

The details of the fixes included in this Fix pack can be found at
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27014224

1.4 HIPER APARs

There are no HIPER APARs shipped in this service update.


1.5 CUM packages

All PTFs in this service update are being withheld from all i5/OS CUM packages to prevent an unintended upgrade of WebSphere MQ on systems which have WebSphere Application Services installed.


1.6 Error messages logged by APYPTF or RMVPTF

All nine *BASE PTF's and the Sample PTF use a PTF exit program called AMQIPTFX. If WebSphere MQ has not been fully quiesced AND subsystem QMQM has not been shut down, then performing APYPTF or RMVPTF will not run to completion and AMQIPTFX will log the messages shown below:

INFO Using exit program AMQIPTFX.1.6 for product 5724H72 and PTF SIxxxxx
CPF1010 Subsystem name QMQM active.
AMQ6903 Installation failed, WebSphere MQ resources are still active.
