Error description
InquireChannel PCF command with ChannelType parameter does not return all of the requested channel details. Only the first requested channel attribute is returned, or the description in the case of MQIACF_ALL.
Local fix
As a temporary workaround then the customer could consider reordering the PCF message so that the ChannelType is specified before the ChannelAttrs.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users who have written PCF applications that use MQCMD_INQUIRE_CHANNEL, and that specify an explicit ChannelType AFTER the ChannelAttrs in the PCF message. Platforms affected: All Distributed (iSeries, all Unix and Windows) **************************************************************** PROBLEM SUMMARY: When parsing the PCF Inquire Channel command then the command server is overwriting the number of attributes requested by the ChannelAttrs parameter when processing the ChannelType attribute. Thus if the ChannelType attribute is specified after the ChannelAttrs attribute then the number of channel attributes becomes incorrect (i.e 1).
Problem conclusion
The parsing of the InquireChannel command was corrected not to use the same variable when parsing the ChannelAttrs and ChannelType structures. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: v6.0 Platform Fix Pack 6.0.2.4 -------- -------------------- Windows U200290 AIX U814256 HP-UX (PA-RISC) U814152 HP-UX (Itanium) U814342 Solaris (SPARC) U814337 Solaris (x86-64) U814343 iSeries SI31813 Linux (x86) U814336 Linux (x86-64) U814341 Linux (zSeries) U814338 Linux (Power) U814339 Linux (s390x) U814340 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------
