APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The error-report on the MQ Appliance includes many placeholder files (0 byte) from the /sys file system. Sometimes, there is a very large number of these entries which causes the error-report to be truncated.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of the IBM MQ appliance Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When generating an MQ Appliance error report, for diagnostic purposes, the appliance includes file listings from relevant filesystems. Under load, it is expected for many zero-byte files to exist under the /sys filesystem, however these are unlikely to be relevant for diagnostic purposes. Due to the number of these files, their presence could cause other more useful information to be truncated from the error report.
Problem conclusion
The MQ appliance error report logic has been modified to exclude the /sys file system entries from the error report. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v9.1 CD TBC. v9.1 LTS 9.1.0.6 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 ---------------------------------------------------------------
