Error description
If the cli-timeout configuration option is being used and a timeout occurs when using the mqcli, then the user may see the following message on the screen: "Session has been terminated. Goodbye" The session does not disconnect and the mqcli allows further MQ command activity until the user exits from the mqcli. At this point the session is disconnected. Additional Symptom(s) Search Keyword(s): MQ appliance; cli timeout

Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of the cli-timeout option of the IBM MQ Appliance may be affected by this issue. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The cli-timeout option should force a session that is logged in to the IBM MQ Appliance CLI to be disconnected if no command line activity takes place before the timeout occurs. When in the mqcli part of the CLI, this timeout period was not observed and sessions would remain connected even after the timeout period had elapsed.
Problem conclusion
The MQ appliance firmware code has been modified so that the mqcli will correctly observe the cli-timeout value. It should be noted that when a command is being run from the mqcli then the timeout is cancelled for that session until the command ends. This means that if for example the dspmqerr command is being run, then the session will not time out even if no command line activity takes place. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v9.0 CD 9.0.4 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------
