PI35090: V8 CLIENT ENCOUNTERS XA ERROR CODES WHEN CONNECTING TO V701 Z/OSQUEUE MANAGER

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as unreproducible.

Error description

• A change was made in the V8 client to no longer filter the
  qmname= string in the XA parameters flowed to the server. The
  V701 server does not expect this and does not find the queue
  manager name parameter. This causes an XA error.

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere MQ for z/OS Version 7 *
  *                 Release 0 Modification 1.                    *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When using a V800 client to connect to  *
  *                      a V701 queue manager to do an XA_OPEN,  *
  *                      the call fails with reason -5.          *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The V8 client changed the parameters flowed to the server. Thus
  instead of flowing just the queue manager name, it flows qmname=
  as well. This is unexpected by the server and causes the call to
  fail.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• The code was changed to correctly handle the case where the
  client sends qmname= on the XA parameter string.
