Error description
When displaying the RVERSION channel status property via DISPLAY CHSTATUS for an MQ managed V9 .Net Client Connecting to a Queue Manager the version of the remote MQ code identified by RVERSION is incorrectly showing as (08000000). The DISPLAY CHSTATUS output shows as below: AMQ8417: Display Channel Status details. CHANNEL(SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN) CHLTYPE(SVRCONN) RVERSION(08000000) RPRODUCT(MQNM) If APAR IT20932 is included then the maintenance level information is omitted in the RVERSION for V9 and will be displayed as RVERSION(09000000). If APAR IT07782 is included then the maintenance level information is omitted in the RVERSION for V8 and V7.5 and will be displayed as RVERSION(07500000) and RVERSION(08000000).
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of managed .Net client applications attempting to find the RVERSION property of a channel. Platforms affected: Windows **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The V9 managed .Net client did not have the correct version coded and so passed the old value to the queue manager on connection, causing the queue manager's channel status to display the RVERSION as RVERSION(08000000). With IT20932 in place, the RVERSION value for V9 was corrected as RVERSION(09000000) but this did not include the maintenance level information. Similarly for V8 and V7.5, APAR IT07782 did not include the maintenance level information in RVERSION.
Problem conclusion
The managed .Net client code now passes the correct version information including maintenance level to the queue manager on connection, so the RVERSION of a connected channel displays correctly. It should be noted that the ordering of the digits in 7.5 is corrected. A 7.5 client will now report RVERSION(070500xx), where xx is the fix pack level, instead of RVERSION(07500000) --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v7.5 7.5.0.9 v8.0 8.0.0.8 v9.0 CD 9.0.4 v9.0 LTS 9.0.0.3 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------
