Error description

  • You are seeing differences between MQ 9.1 and MQ 9.2 when
    running:
       dis chs(*) saved all
    
    MQ 9.2 is always returning INDOUBT(YES), even when the channel
    is NOT indoubt.
    
    Example:
       dis chs(to.*) saved all
    AMQ8417I: Display Channel Status details.
       CHANNEL(TO.QM1)                   CHLTYPE(CLUSSDR)
       INDOUBT(YES)                       STATUS(STOPPED)
    
    MQ 9.1 does not exhibit this incorrect behavior.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    Users who want to rely on the INDOUBT output value in the Saved
    channel status for a channel.
    
    
    Platforms affected:
    MultiPlatform
    
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    On retrieval of the Saved channel status from disk, a
    calculation involving two variables has to be performed to
    determine the real INDOUBT value.  This calculation was not
    being performed.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The MQ queue manager saved channel status code has been fixed.
     On retrieval of the Saved channel status from disk, the
    necessary calculation is now being performed.
