Error description
The queue manager STATQ attribute was ON but after START QMGR BACKMIG was executed, the STATQ was changed to OFF. For a change in command level, QMGR start up in CSQMERST decides to recreate the QMGR object (MMMS). To do this it queues a request to call CSQMNMMS. CSQMNMMS sets defaults for each of the QMGR object attributes. It then locates the old QMGR object, and copies values from it into the new one as appropriate. The problem is that the STATQ value is never copied from the old QMGR object. This leaves it at the default value which is OFF. This problem occurs for every migration, forward or backwards.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM MQ for z/OS Version 9 * * Release 3 Modification 0 and Release 4 * * Modification 0. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The status of the STATQ attribute on * * the queue manager is not correctly * * preserved when performing forward or * * backward migration across MQ versions. * **************************************************************** While object migration occurs during both forward and backward migration, the queue manager object (MMMS) containing the STATQ attribute is recreated during startup. The recreation process does not copy the STATQ value from the previous instance, resulting in it being reset to its default value of OFF.
Problem conclusion
The code has been changed to ensure the STATQ status from the previous queue manager object is correctly copied into the newly created object during migration.
