Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: All MQ Appliance users using it for HA DR and migrating from 9.1 to 9.2 without following the documented procedure for migration. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The queue manager migration command sethagrp -u failed to migrate the queue manager if the HA status on both Primary and Secondary are in 'Migration Pending' state.
