Error description
The S602-00000000 abend occurred in CSQ0BSTP while doing a cross-memory post of the G0BL.lAMSECB ECB. The abend occurred because the AMSM address space had already ended. Investigation has determined that the G0BL.fStopped flag wasn't set when AMSM went away due to changes introduced by APAR PH63803.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM MQ for z/OS Version 9 * * Release 4 Modification 0. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An S602 abend can occur during queue * * manager shutdown if a STOP QMGR * * MODE(QUIESCE) is followed by STOP QMGR * * MODE(FORCE) before shutdown has fully * * completed. * **************************************************************** The code which handles the AMS shutdown processing posts the AMSM address space with the same code used for abnormal terminations. AMS interprets that post code as such and skips setting AMS as stopped. In this situation, the queue manager does not acknowledge that AMS has stopped and, when the STOP QMGR MODE(FORCE) is issued, it attempts to post the AMS address space after it has already ended, which results in the abend.
Problem conclusion
The code has been modified to correctly differentiate a normal shutdown from an abnormal termination, preventing a post to an already terminated AMSM address space and allowing the queue manager shutdown to complete cleanly.
