Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: WMQ customers using TCP channels over IPv6 networks. Platforms affected: All Distributed (iSeries, all Unix and Windows) **************************************************************** PROBLEM SUMMARY: The AMQ9213 error occurred because the IPv6 sin6_scope_id had not been set by the initiating end of the channel. Some systems require a non-zero IPv6 scope ID to qualify an IPv6 address.
Problem conclusion
WMQ has been modified to allow both the initiating and responding ends of channels to initialise the IPv6 scope ID. Affected customers will need to apply the fix for this APAR and include the scope ID in the channel definition CONNAME field. The scope ID must be the last item in the field and must be separated from the hostname by a percent character (%). For example, a connection to host fe80::4567 on port 1415 which needs to use scope ID 1 should have a CONNAME of "fe80::4567(1415)%1". The same syntax can also be used in the channel definition LOCLADDR field. The runmqlsr -i parameter can also accept an optional scope ID, for example: runmqlsr -m QMGR -t tcp -p 1416 -i fe80::7890%1 --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: v6.0 Platform Fix Pack 6.0.2.3 -------- -------------------- Windows U200279 AIX U811346 HP-UX (PA-RISC) U811630 HP-UX (Itanium) U811631 Solaris (SPARC) U811632 Solaris (x86-64) U811633 iSeries SI27288 Linux (x86) U811634 Linux (x86-64) U811635 Linux (zSeries) U811636 Linux (Power) U811637 Linux (s390x) U811638 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from 'WebSphere MQ Recommended Fixes' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006037 If the maintenance level is not yet available, information on its planned availability can be found in 'WebSphere MQ Planned Maintenance Release Dates' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006309 ---------------------------------------------------------------
