PH68752: QUEUE STATISTICS NOT GENERATED AFTER RESTART WHEN USING STATQ(QMGR) WITH QMGR STATQ(ON)

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The queue-level SMF statistics (record type 115, subtype 216)
  are not being generated when queues are configured with
  STATQ(QMGR), even though the queue manager has STATQ(ON) and
  SMFSTAT(5) active.
  
  QMGR startup in CSQIERS3 calls CSQICRE2 to recreate all the
  objects from their definitions stored on page set 0. If a queue
  has been defined with STATQ(QMGR), then the value of STATQ on
  the QMGR object is used.
  
  The problem is that this value in the MGBL hasn't been set yet
  when CSQIERS3 is called during QMGR startup. The value not being
  set will be interpreted as the QMGR object having STATQ(OFF),
  which will get propagated to the queue object.
  

Local fix

• As a workaround, setting STATQ(OFF) and back to STATQ(ON) on th
  QMGR object after a restart should resolve the problem.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When restarting a queue manager with    *
  *                      STATQ(ON) and queues configured with    *
  *                      STATQ(QMGR), SMF statistics for queues  *
  *                      may not be generated even though the    *
  *                      configuration appears correct.          *
  ****************************************************************
  During queue manager restart, the initialisation of queue
  attributes does not correctly propagate the STATQ setting from
  the queue manager to the individual queues when configured with
  STATQ(QMGR). This leads to the STATQ attribute being set to OFF
  for queues even though it is set to ON for the queue manager,
  and as a result, no SMF statistics are generated for the queues.
  

Problem conclusion

• The initialisation has been updated to ensure the queue
  manager's STATQ attribute is correctly applied to queues with
  STATQ(QMGR) during restart of the queue manager.
