WebSphere MQ V7.0.1 for i5/OS Fix Pack 7.0.1.3
WebSphere MQ V7.0 Fix Pack 7.0.1.3

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• After adding a remote queue manager to a WebSphere MQ  (WMQ)
  Explorer set, a restart of the WMQ Explorer removes the newly
  added definition from that set.
  

Local fix

• Remove any duplicate or hidden queue manager definitions, then
  rebuild the sets
  

Problem summary

• The WMQ Explorer stores the information about which
  
  manager is in which set using a key which is constructed
  
  information including the name of the queue manager.
  
  
  If there are two or more instances of the the same queue
  
  in the WMQ Explorer and some are hidden, the next time the
  
  Explorer is restarted a particular instance of the queue
  
  can end up with the key from the other instance of the
  
  queue manager.
  
  
  The second instance may not have been part of the manual set,
  
  and so the queue manager no longer appears in that set.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• Closing as FIN (Fixed If Next Release).
  
  
  To resolve this problem duplicate instances of the same
  
  manager should be removed from the WMQ Explorer.
