IT40062: dmpmqcfg reports an incorrect number of returned objects when used with a z/OS queue manager

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When the dmpmqcfg command is used with a z/OS queue manager then
  an incorrect number of objects is returned in the summary
  section of the dmpmqcfg output.  Here, for example, there are
  two reported QueueManager object results despite only one queue
  manager being queried:
  
  * QueueManager count: 2
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Those who use dmpmqcfg with IBM MQ on z/OS queue managers will
  be affected by this problem.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  IBM MQ on z/OS sends an MQCFT_XR_SUMMARY PCF response message
  when it replies to dmpmqcfg PCF inquire commands.  These
  messages were being incorrectly counted as object records,
  meaning that the count of each object type in the dmpmqcfg
  summary was one more than it should have been.
  

Problem conclusion

• dmpmqcfg was modified so that MQCFT_XR_SUMMARY PCF messages are
  ignored and are therefore not counted as object records.
