IT12856: CLUSTER CHANNEL CAN GO INTO INITIALIZING STATE WHEN REMOVED FROMCLUSTER

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a node is removed from an MQ cluster and there is an
  automatically defined cluster sender channel from a MQ node on
  NonStop to the removed node, the sender channel on NonStop can
  go into state INITIALIZING and stay there for up to 60 minutes
  instead of being deleted after the first retry interval (60
  seconds) is expired. This problem was not observed in version
  5.3.1.9, but was introduced with 5.3.1.10.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• When a node is removed from an MQ cluster and there is
  an automatically defined cluster sender channel from a
  MQ node on NonStop to the removed node, the sender
  channel on NonStop can go into state INITIALIZING and
  stay there for up to 60 minutes instead of being
  deleted after the first retry interval has expired.
  

Problem conclusion

• If a local channel definition for a cluster sending
  channel is not found by the MCA, then this is now properly
  reported back to the repository  manager.
