IT36630: RDQM may show status as 'Ended Unexpectedly' instead of 'RunningElsewhere' on the Secondary node

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When the 'dspmq' or 'rdqmstatus' commands are issued on a
  working replicated data queue manager (RDQM), the status on the
  secondary nodes
  might show as 'Ended Unexpectedly' instead of 'Running
  elsewhere'.
  
  Example of 'rdqmstatus' issued in a secondary node:
  Queue manager name:                     RDQMQMGR
  Queue manager status:                   Ended unexpectedly
  HA current location:                    hostname
  

Local fix

• Workaround:
  Trigger a manual failover of the RDQM by changing the
  preferred node. Verify the queue manager status on all the
  nodes is as expected, then set the preferred node back to its
  original preferred.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All IBM MQ users using RDQM feature
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  Linux on x86-64
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Running crm_resource --cleanup command to clear the failed
  actions might have resulted in incorrect status being displayed
  when queue manager status is queried on the Secondary node.  The
  status of the queue manager on the Secondary might have shown as
  'Ended' instead of 'Running Elsewhere'.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been modified to correct this problem.
