    recipients.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM MQ for z/OS Version 9       *
    *                 Release 1 Modification 0.                    *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When attempting to get a message from a *
    *                      queue protected by an AMS policy using  *
    *                      the Java client, the intended           *
    *                      recipients are not able to get the      *
    *                      message despite having the correct      *
    *                      certificate and DN.                     *
    ****************************************************************
    An optimisation added between the Java client and AMS was
    incorrectly setting the recipient DN. This results in an MQRC
    2063 (MQRC_SECURITY_ERROR) being returned to the application
    despite the application providing the correct certificate.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code has been changed to set the correct recipient DN.
