2025 (07E9) (RC2025): MQRC_MAX_CONNS_LIMIT_REACHED

Explanation

The MQCONN or MQCONNX call was rejected because the maximum number of concurrent connections has been exceeded.
  • [z/OS]On z/OS®, the connection limits are 32767 for both TSO and Batch.
  • [UNIX, Linux, Windows, IBM i]On Multiplatforms, this reason code can also occur on the MQOPEN call.
  • When using Java applications, the connection manager might define a limit to the number of concurrent connections.
    Note: The application using IBM® MQ might have delegated the management of connections to a framework or connection pool, for example, a Java EE application server, an application framework such as Spring, an IBM Container (for IBM Cloud® (formerly Bluemix®)), or a combination of these. For more information, see IBM MQ classes for JMS object pooling.

Completion code

MQCC_FAILED

Programmer response

Either increase the size of the appropriate parameter value, or reduce the number of concurrent connections.
