Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:

  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  A defect in the channel object migration code meant that channel
  objects were not migrated correctly
  when the queue manager was started at the new code level.  As a
  consequence channels continued to
  work normally, but channel names were not displayed by runmqsc
  or MQ Explorer.
  

Problem conclusion

• The defect has been fixed so that channel definitions are
  migrated correctly when the
  queue manager is started for the first time at the new code
  level.
