  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The dmpmqcfg output for subscriptions with DESTCLAS(PROVIDED) is
    missing line continuation characters ('+') for DEST, DESTQMGR
    and DESTCORL.
    The logic was corrected under APAR IT24049, however the logic
    for this APAR only takes effect when DESTCLAS(MANAGED) or when
    all attributes are requested (using -a).
    
    In V9 and later, the omission of DESTCLAS(MANAGED) leaves an
    extra line continuation character.
    At V8 the line continuation characters are omitted for DEST,
    DESTQMGR and DESTCORL.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    Any users using dmpmqcfg to inquire subscription data may be
    affected.
    
    
    Platforms affected:
    MultiPlatform
    
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    When inquiring subscription configuration information, dmpmqcfg
    filters out attribute data that is not valid for managed
    subscriptions (DEST, DESTQMGR and DESTCORL are invalid). The
    logic that handles this filtering waits until the DESTCLAS
    information is encountered in the PCF response data before
    choosing whether to inhibit an attribute from the output. The
    logic also handles line continuation symbol '+' when using a
    multi-line MQSC output format. A logic error occurs which could
    cause the line continuation symbols to be omitted or to be
    duplicated on a single line.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The dmpmqcfg logic is changed to always identify the DESTCLAS
    attribute value before deciding whether to suppress DEST,
    DESTQMGR and DESTCORL.
