IT29032: Replicated Data Queue Manager fails to start on any of the nodes.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In IBM MQ 9.1, Replicated Data Queue  Manager may end up in
  banned state on all 3 nodes and would not start on any of the
  nodes. The root-RDQM.LOG will record lines like the below
  indicating that the queue manager is in ban state on each of the
  nodes.
  
  location cli-ban-RDQM1-on-NODE001 qm1 role=Started -inf: NODE001
  location cli-ban-RDQM1-on-NODE002 qm1 role=Started -inf: NODE002
  location cli-ban-RDQM1-on-NODE003 qm1 role=Started -inf: NODE003
  
  RDQM1 is the queue manager name and NODE00* are the node name
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users using Replicated Data Queue Managers (RDQM).
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  Linux on x86-64
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Certain sequence of network failures will force the replicated
  data queue manager (RDQM) into a 'banned' state on all three
  nodes.  Though this is expected to be cleared internally it was
  not happening in certain cases.  As a result the RDQM could not
  be started on any of its nodes.
  

Problem conclusion

• The RDQM code has been modified such that the banned state can
  be handled programmatically.
