Closed as program error.
Error description
When running runmqsc and displaying your channel status details you see your channel is showing a MCAUSER as you expect: . AMQ8417: Display Channel Status details. CHANNEL(CHAN1.SVRCONN) CHLTYPE(SVRCONN) CONNAME(11.111.11.11) CURRENT MCAUSER(user1) STATUS(RUNNING) SUBSTATE(RECEIVE) . However, you notice that one of your channels has a MCAUSER value of '*': . AMQ8417: Display Channel Status details. CHANNEL(CHAN2.SVRCONN) CHLTYPE(SVRCONN) CONNAME(22.222.22.22) CURRENT MCAUSER(*) STATUS(RUNNING) SUBSTATE(RECEIVE) . Normally, MCAUSER(*) will appear when multiple users are accessing the channel at the same time; however, you have mapped all of your connections to one user id.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Customers with: multiple client channels with different users CHLAUTH setting MCAUSER to the same user name Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The "*" value was shown incorrectly when an MCAUSER attribute truncated to non-whitespace characters was compared with one which was space-filled, leading to the incorrect conclusion that the attributes were different.
Problem conclusion
The MQ queue manager logic has been updated to ensure that truncated attributes and space padded MCAUSER attributes are normalized before being compared. The channel status will continue to correctly display MCAUSER(*) if there are multiple MCA user IDs in use on the channel instance. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v8.0 8.0.0.6 v9.0 CD 9.0.1 v9.0 LTS 9.0.0.1 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from 'WebSphere MQ Recommended Fixes' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006037 If the maintenance level is not yet available information on its planned availability can be found in 'WebSphere MQ Planned Maintenance Release Dates' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006309 ---------------------------------------------------------------
