IT13465: RFH2 header missing from expiration report messages

IBM MQ for HP NonStop Server V8.1 fix pack 8.1.0.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When a message expires, an expiration report message is then
  produced by the queue manager, because the message's report
  options and ReplyToQ are set correctly.
  
  The MQMD.Report contains report option
  MQRO_EXPIRATION_WITH_FULL_DATA so the report message contains
  the whole data from the original message.
  
  Since 7.5.0.5 or 8.0.0.1 it is possible for the report message
  to omit the MQRFH2 header information even though this was
  present in the original message.
  

Local fix

• Use the ALL property of the PROPCTL queue attribute default
  setting:

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users with MQ 7.5.0.5 or 8.0.0.1 who are using expiration report
  messages, and the original message contained an MQRFH2 header.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform

  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Because of an unexpected side-effect from APAR IT02389 that was
  included in 7.5.0.5 or 8.0.0.1, this new APAR has been
  experienced.  It relates to expiration report messages where the
  original message contained an MQRFH2 header.
  
  In the message-put operation that the queue manager was
  performing internally, some numbers representing property
  lengths ought to have been calculated and stored together with
  the message.  However, these numbers were not being calculated,
  so the stored numbers were incorrect.
  

Problem conclusion

• The IBM MQ product code has been corrected.  In the message-put
  operation that the queue manager was performing internally, the
  numbers stored together with the message are now calculated
  correctly.
