IT27747: Upon message expiration, report message gets generated with re-arranged MQRF2 headers.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Using MQ v9, messages published with the expiration option
  MQRO_EXPIRATION_WITH_FULL_DATA result in a report message with
  an unexpected format.
  The MQRFH2 header in the report message is not consistent with
  MQRFH2 in the original message.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users who put the message onto the queue with expiration
  option MQRO_EXPIRATION_WITH_FULL_DATA.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  A message with an MQ RFH2 header was put to a queue with
  expiration option MQRO_EXPIRATION_WITH_FULL_DATA. When this
  message expired the queue manager generated an expiry report and
  the subsequent report message had additional MQRFH2 headers
  which were not present in the original message.  This problem
  occurred because the queue manager incorrectly split the
  original message and rearranged it with additional MQRFH2
  headers. The original message should not be split and the
  message in the expiry report should be same as the original
  message.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been corrected so that while adding the report
  message to the reply-to queue the message is not split and
  rearranged with MQRFH2 header.
