DFHMQ0480 E MQCC=2 MQRC=2195 when starting the CICS-MQ adapter

Question & Answer


Question

Why are you receiving DFHMQ0480 E MQCC=2 MQRC=2195 message when trying to communicate with IBM MQ from CICS Transaction Server for z/OS (CICS TS)?  In the past, you have been able to start the CICS-MQ adapter.

Answer

Abend 00D7 with RC=00000025 followed by message DFHMQ0480 E with MQCC=2 and MQRC=2195 is the result of someone entering a CANCEL command to end the MQ address space.

LOGDATA shows your MQ address space had an abend 00D7 with RC=00000025 before the DFHMQ0480E message. The abend 00D7 with RC=00000025 is due to the MQ address space going away. Afterwards, whatever tries to communicate with the address space suffers the DFHMQ0480 E error with MQCC 2 MQRC 2195 on cross memory operations.
