Closed as program error.
Error description
WebSphere MQ utility program runmqtrm (Run MQ Trigger Monitor) determines that a message it reads from its input queue is not a correctly formatted trigger message. It sends the message to the queue manager's Dead Letter Queue, if one is defined. If the message was Persistent it could be put as a Non-Persistent message on the Dead Letter Queue. This was found when the user mistakenly ran runmqtrm against their application queue rather than an initiation queue (INITQ).
Local fix
Ensure that runmqtrm is only run against a INITQ which will contain only validly-formed trigger messages.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of runmqtrm, where they might supply the wrong queue name via the -q switch on the command line. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: runmqtrm was not preserving various message descriptor fields when putting the Dead Letter Queue message.
Problem conclusion
The product source code for runmqtrm has been corrected to preserve message descriptor fields when putting the Dead Letter Queue message. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v7.0 7.0.1.14 v7.1 7.1.0.8 v7.5 7.5.0.7 v8.0 8.0.0.5 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------
