Error description
When sending messages having RFH2 and the Confirm on Arrival (COA) destination specified to a remote queue, the COA message ends up on the DLQ. The sender client application is on a remote machine and the RFH2 message is sent to a remote queue manager which in turn sends the COA message to a remote queue on another remote queue manager. The COA message shows up on the Dead Letter Queue of the remote queue manager with MQRC_MDE_ERROR.
Local fix
COA messages destined for a local queue works.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of MQ V8 who use the Confirm On Arrival report message feature. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a message containing an RFH2 is specified with COA whose destination is set to a remote queue, the COA message is incorrectly built by the queue manager. This causes the COA message to be delivered to the Dead Letter Queue with MQRC_MDE_ERROR. The sender application sends the RFH2 message to a remote queue and this message has its COA destination set to another remote queue. The COA is then sent to the remote queue and while doing this, the queue manager incorrectly builds the COA message with the wrong format and thus causes the COA message to end up in the remote queue manager's Dead Letter Queue. The problem is not seen if the destination of the COA message is set to a local queue.
Problem conclusion
The queue manager code is modified so that the COA message is built correctly, meaning that the message can be delivered to the respective remote queue successfully. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v8.0 8.0.0.3 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------
