Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM MQ for z/OS Version 8 * * Release 0 Modification 0. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If the associated cluster transmission * * queue to an expired channel has been * * deleted by the user then a S378 abend * * in the Channel Initiator can be issued * * during cluster maintenance. * **************************************************************** The user deleted a locally defined queue that was previously associated as the transmission queue for a local cluster sender channel. When that channel was not used for a long time (over 90 days) then, via internal automated processing in the queue manager's cluster repository manager, the local auto-defined channel definitions for it were expired from the local cluster cache. At this time the queue manager was calling MQOPEN on the cluster transmission queue that was configured for that channel. If the user had deleted the queue, then this failed, and in the error-handling logic that follows, the CHINIT can issue a S378 abend.
Problem conclusion
The MQ product code has been altered so that the missing transmission queue is not treated as an error condition at this point in the processing. The cluster repository manager completes its removal of the old records from its cache without any errors.
