IT41748: XMS .NET applications failed to rebalance when the CCDT was specified using MQCHLLIB

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When an XMS .NET application, running in unmanaged mode, used
  the MQCHLLIB environment
  variable to specify a CCDT then application instances did not
  rebalance correctly across a
  uniform cluster.
  

Local fix

• Use the CCDTURL environment variable to specify the CCDT
  location.

  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  An XMS .NET application, running in unmanaged mode, used the
  MQCHLLIB environment
  variable to specify a CCDT and connect to a queue manager
  running in a uniform cluster.
  However, a defect in the client code caused the XMS session to
  be created without the
  flags that are needed to rebalance application instances across
  the uniform cluster.
  

Problem conclusion

• The defect has been fixed so that XMS application instances are
  balanced correctly
  across the cluster.
