AMQ messages

IBM® MQ diagnostic messages (for platforms other than z/OS®) are listed in this section in numerical order, grouped according to the part of IBM MQ from which they originate.

Note: If a message is specific to a single platform, this is indicated after the message identifier. Although some messages are listed several times, each instance relates to a different platform. If present, the version common to a number of platforms is listed first, followed by versions for individual platforms. Ensure that you read the appropriate version.

Reading a message

The following information is provided for each message:
Message identifier
The message identifier is in two parts:
  1. The characters "AMQ", which identify the message as being from IBM MQ
  2. A four-digit decimal code
Message text
A summary of the message
Severity
0: Informational
10: Warning
20: Error
30: Error
40: Severe
50: Terminating
Explanation
An explanation of the message giving further information.
Response
The response required from the user. In some cases, particularly for information messages, this might be "none".

Message variables

Some messages display text or numbers that vary according to the circumstances giving rise to the message; these are known as message variables. The message variables are indicated as <insert_1>, <insert_2>, and so on.

In some cases a message might have variables in the Explanation or Response. Find the values of the message variables by looking in the error log. The complete message, including the Explanation and the Response, is recorded there.
