Error description
An mq agent instance can be configured to point to a different TEMS than the default. It can also be configured to use a different port on that TEMS than the default. However, when the agent instance is started, it points to the default TEMS/port instead of the one for which it was configured. RECREATE INSTRUCTIONS: The mq agent is always started using the file CANDLEHOME/config/mq.config. The instance configurations live in CANDLEHOME/config/.Config/kmqenv. The following command sequence demonstrates how only the host information from the default instance is used in mq.config at agent start time: # itmcmd config -A mq (set TEMS==mqtems_default) # grep "CT_CMSLIST" /opt/IBM/ITM/config/mq.config export CT_CMSLIST='ip.pipe:mqtems_default # itmcmd config -A -o inst1 mq (set TEMS==mqtems1) # grep "mqtems" /opt/IBM/ITM/config/.ConfigData/kmqenv inst1|HOSTNAME|mqtems1| aix523|HOSTNAME|mqtems_default| # grep "CT_CMSLIST" /opt/IBM/ITM/config/mq.config export CT_CMSLIST='ip.pipe:mqtems1' # itmcmd config -A -o inst2 mq (set TEMS==mqtems2) # grep "mqtems" /opt/IBM/ITM/config/.ConfigData/kmqenv inst1|HOSTNAME|mqtems1| inst2|HOSTNAME|mqtems2| aix523|HOSTNAME|mqtems_default| # grep "CT_CMSLIST" /opt/IBM/ITM/config/mq.config export CT_CMSLIST='ip.pipe:mqtems2' # itmcmd agent start -o inst1 mq # grep "CT_CMSLIST" /opt/IBM/ITM/config/mq.config export CT_CMSLIST='ip.pipe:mtems_default' Basically, the code needs to build and use an instance-specific mq.config each time it starts the agent.
Local fix
Problem summary
An MQ agent instance can be configured to point to a different management server than the default. It can also be configured to use a different port on that management server than the default. However, when the agent instance is started, it points to the default management server and port instead of the one for which it was configured.
Problem conclusion
Modified the installer to point to the management server and port from which it was configured. The fix for this APAR is included in the following maintenance vehicle: | fix pack | 6.2.1-TIV-ITM-FP0003
