    application structures that host MQ shared queues.
    

Local fix

  • Not applicable.
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM MQ for z/OS Version 9       *
    *                 Release 2 Modification 0 and Release 3       *
    *                 Modification 0                               *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: A 5C6 abend was encountered while       *
    *                      opening a shared queue. The resulting   *
    *                      dump did not contain the CF structure   *
    *                      associated with that shared queue.      *
    ****************************************************************
    5C6-00C5xxxx abends currently dump the CSQ_ADMIN and CSQSYSAPPL
    structures. As these abends often occur under the structure task
    associated with a different structure, the associated
    application structure should be dumped.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code has been modified to ensure that the CF structure
    associated with the task is dumped during such abends, and
    others taking place on a structure task. This will aid in
    diagnosing the problem more effectively and provide users with
    the vital information to resolve the issue in the future.
