Error description
By default the Virtual Application Instance deployment ID is used in the MQ data directory path and MQ data is removed when updating the IBM MQ Virtual System Instance.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: This affects users of IBM Pure Application System Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: By default the MQ Data directory includes the deployment id so that Queue Manager log directories are separated for each deployed instanced. On deletion of the Virtual Instance the MQ data tree is deleted as part of the clean-up.
Problem conclusion
IBM MQ Pattern now includes an option so that the user may elect to manage their MQ data directory manually. If is option is selected, then the IBM MQ data directory will be set to the value specified in the pattern (the deployment Id will not be used) and the GPFS directory structures will not be deleted when the Virtual Instance is deleted. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v8.0 8.0.0.6 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------
