Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of IBM MQ
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Additional data points to assist with IBM support's problem
  determination required inclusion in the data captured by the
  runmqras utility.
  

Problem conclusion

• The runmqras utility has been updated as follows:
  
  1. A new "mft" section is added, to capture the data obtained by
  the fteRas command.
  
  2. On the IBM MQ Appliance, any files other than queue manager
  trace files present in the mqtrace: filesystem are now captured
  in the default section. The "trace" section should continue to
  be specified if it is required to obtain any queue manager trace
  files present in the mqtrace: filesystem.
  
  3. Additional commands to capture pkginfo output on Solaris
  systems are added to the default section.
