Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM MQ for z/OS Version 9       *
    *                 Release 1 Modification 0.                    *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: SMF 116 records contain invalid data    *
    *                      for wtasmstc and wtassstc for CICS and  *
    *                      chinit connections accessing shared     *
    *                      queues.                                 *
    ****************************************************************
    An error in fast deallocation processing causes the interval
    end time to be stored at the wrong offset in the WTAS control
    block for cics and chinit connections.
    This causes the last 4 bytes of wtassstc and the first 4 bytes
    of wtasmstc to be overlaid.
    
    In addition, when locating messages by groupid, the time spent
    in IXLLSTM is calculated incorrectly, also leading to invalid
    values in wtasmstc.
    

Problem conclusion

  • CSQEFGMS is changed to correctly calculate the time spent in the
    IXLLSTM call when locating the first message in a complete
    message group.
    CSQ7ADAL is changed to store the interval end time at the
    correct offset in the WTAS.
