IT44261: Restrict number of lines output from dspmqtrc saying unrecognised hookID

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If there has been corruption of an MQ trace file, then the
  dspmqtrc program that processes the file can write many lines of
  output similar to:
  
  Unrecognised hookID:0x0 at file offset 0x422010
  
  But really only one such line is needed, plus a further line of
  output saying when the corruption has been passed over.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users of dspmqtrc when formatting a .TRC file that has had some
  corruption (the corruption itself is not the subject of this
  APAR).
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  The error text emitted from dspmqtrc to stdout was too verbose
  about each time it tried and failed to obtain a new starting
  point after some file corruption in the .TRC file. Then it did
  not make it clear that a new good starting point had been found,
  and successful processing had re-started.
  

Problem conclusion

• The error text emitted from dspmqtrc to stdout has been changed
  in two ways:
  - It is now not verbose about each time it tries and fails to
  obtain a new starting point after some file corruption in the
  .TRC file.
  - A new line of output is written when a new good starting point
  is found in the .TRC fle, and successful processing has
  re-started.
