SE44852: WEBSPHERE MQ V7 ENDMQM MQMNAME(*DFT) COMMAND FAILS WITH AMQ8118

WebSphere MQ V7.0 Fix Pack 7.0.1.4
WebSphere MQ V7.0.1 for i5/OS Fix Pack 7.0.1.4

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When performing ENDMQM at V7, using the default values,
  the command fails with AMQ8118, WebSphere MQ queue manager
  does not exist, when a default queue manager does exist.
  At V7, the MQMNAME has a default value of *DFT, and when a
  default queue manager does exist, the ENDMQM should proceed
  to quiesce the queue manager but ends in error.
  This problem is seen in WMQ 7.0.0.0 - 7.0.1.3
  

Local fix

• Explicitly specify a parameter on the ENDMQM command
  and it will not fail.
  ENDMQM MQMANME(qmgrname) or
  ENDMQM RECONN(*YES)
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  WMQ users attempting to utilize ENDMQM to end the default
  queue manager.
  
  Platforms affected:
  iSeries
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  WMQ was not properly calculating queue manager name length
  resulting in error when attempting to end the default queue
  manager.
  

Problem conclusion

• WMQ code has been modified to properly calculate queue manager
  length of default queue manager so that *DFT value can be used
  for MQMNAME parameter.
