What's changed in IBM MQ 9.0.0 Fix Pack 5

IBM® MQ 9.0.0 Fix Pack 5 includes a number of changes to functions and resources.

Resource adapter updates for targetClientMatching property on an activation specification

The IBM MQ JCA resource adapter (MQ-RA) has been updated such that the targetClientMatching property can be configured for an activation specification. You can configure the property so that an MQRFH2 header is included on reply messages when request messages do not contain an MQRFH2 header. This means that any message properties that an application defines on a reply message are included when the message is sent. For more information, see Configuring the targetClientMatching property for an activation specification.

New -caseno parameter for the runmqras command

The -caseno parameter is equivalent to -pmrno, except it allows a valid Salesforce case number to specified. -caseno or -pmrno are both optional parameters, but it is not permitted to supply both together. For more information, see runmqras (collect IBM MQ diagnostic information).

Behavioral changes to IBM MQ client connections

From IBM MQ 9.0.0 Fix Pack 5, there are a number of minor changes to the way in which a client channel connects to a queue manager. The changes are most specifically in the interactions between security exits and the application of CHLAUTH mapping rules. For more information, see the technote Behavioral changes to MQ client connections introduced by APAR IT25839.
