APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The incorrect channel status information is dislayed when the
  Action Queue Manager is one other than the Local Queue Manager.
  For example,
  You logged on to an image in plex (TEST) and ran the following:
  Action  . . . . . . . 1     0. List with filter   4. Manage
                              1. List or Display    5. Perform
                              2. Define like        6. Start
                              3. Alter              7. Stop
                              8. Command
  Object type . . . . . . . . RECEIVER      +
  Name  . . . . . . . . . . . *
  Disposition . . . . . . . . C  Q=Qmgr, C=Copy, P=Private,G=Group
                                 S=Shared, A=All
  Connect name  . . . . . . . CSQ1  - local queue manager or group
  Target queue manager  . . . CSQ1  - connected or remote queue
                                      manager for command input
  Action queue manager  . . . CSQ1  - command scope in group
  Response wait time  . . . . 30    5 - 999 seconds
  ...
  Results in the following:  ( CORRECT STATUS displayed )
      Name                  Type          Disposition   Status
  <>  *                     RECEIVER      COPY    CSQ1
      CSQ1TEST.TO.TEST2     RECEIVER      COPY    CSQ1  RUN
  ...........................................................
  You then log on to another LPAR (XXXX) and execute the same for
  CSQ2 using the action queue manager CSQ1.
  Action  . . . . . . . 1     0. List with filter   4. Manage
                              1. List or Display    5. Perform
                              2. Define like        6. Start
                              3. Alter              7. Stop
                              8. Command
  .
  Object type . . . . . . . . RECEIVER      +
  Name  . . . . . . . . . . . *
  Disposition . . . . . . . . C  Q=Qmgr, C=Copy, P=Private,G=Group
                                 S=Shared, A=All
  Connect name  . . . . . . . CSQ2  - local queue manager or group
  Target queue manager  . . . CSQ2  - connected or remote queue
                                      manager for command input
  .
  The following result is returned:  (Incorrect channel status)
  
      Name                  Type          Disposition   Status
  <>  *                     RECEIVER      COPY    CSQ1
      CSQ1TEST.TO.TEST2     RECEIVER      COPY    CSQ1  INACTIVE
  ..........
  Hitting PF11 on this screen shows the correct status:
  
  CSQ1TEST.TO.TEST2   Status  RUN
  

Local fix

• Use PF11 to display the correct channel status.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere MQ for z/OS Version 7 *
  *                 Release 1 Modification 0.                    *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Active shared channels incorrectly      *
  *                      shown as INACTIVE on 'LIST CHANNELS'    *
  *                      panel CSQOLCA when 'Action queue        *
  *                      manager' is not the same as             *
  *                      'Target queue manager'.                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When listing channels, panel CSQOLCA determines the list of
  channels to display, and the associated channel status. If
  'Action queue manager' is used to display channels running on a
  queue manager in the queue sharing group, other than the queue
  manager specified in 'Target queue manager', the command issued
  by the panels only returns the status of non-shared channels on
  that queue manager. As a result when the channels are displayed,
  any shared channels are incorrectly shown as INACTIVE.
  

Problem conclusion

• CSQORLST is changed to correctly determine the status of both
  shared and non-shared channels running on the 'Action queue
  manager' when displaying the 'List Channels' panel.
