The state of the asynchronous consumer on this queue (parameter identifier: MQIACF_ASYNC_STATE).

The value can be any of the following values:

MQAS_INACTIVE: An MQCB call has set up a function to call back to process messages asynchronously but the connection handle has not yet been started, or has been stopped or suspended, so that asynchronous message consumption cannot currently proceed.
MQAS_SUSPENDED: The asynchronous consumption callback has been suspended so that asynchronous message consumption cannot currently proceed on this handle. This situation can be either because an MQCB or MQCTL call with Operation MQOP_SUSPEND has been issued against this object handle by the application, or because it has been suspended by the system. If it has been suspended by the system, as part of the process of suspending asynchronous message consumption the callback function is called with the reason code that describes the problem resulting in suspension. This situation is reported in the Reason field in the MQCBC structure passed to the callback. In order for asynchronous message consumption to proceed, the application must issue an MQCB or MQCTL call with Operation MQOP_RESUME.
MQAS_SUSPENDED_TEMPORARY: The asynchronous consumption callback has been temporarily suspended by the system so that asynchronous message consumption cannot currently proceed on this object handle. As part of the process of suspending asynchronous message consumption the callback function is called with the reason code that describes the problem resulting in suspension. This situation is reported in the Reason field in the MQCBC structure passed to the callback. The callback function is called again when asynchronous message consumption is resumed by the system after the temporary condition has been resolved.
MQAS_NONE: An MQCB call has not been issued against this handle, so no asynchronous message consumption is configured on this handle.
