    code MQRI_IMS_DATACONV_REQ X'2138' (decimal 8504).
    
    CSQM064I +DM1S CSQMIGQA Intra-group queuing agent
    put messages to dead-letter queue.
    
    The dump shows that the message on the DLQ has not been

    ****************************************************************
    When the intra-group queuing agent attempts to put the message
    to the IMS bridge queue, the message may need to be converted
    for IMS. In this case it is translated and the put is attempted
    again. However the second put attempt will fail as the
    fIMSConvert flag is not set after the translation. This results
    in the intra-group queuing agent putting the message to the dead
    letter queue with reason 8504.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The intra-group queueing agent has been altered to correctly set
    the fIMSConvert flag on after conversion to allow the second put
    attempt to succeed.
