There is no special information for this fix pack.

E) Fix Pack CSD10 (PTF U800393)
----------------------------

XAOpenString
------------
Support for an escape character in the XAOpenString parameter of a
XAResourceManager stanza is added.

'\' has been introduced to allow ';' and '#' characters to be
specified. This allows the strings '\;' or '\#' to be used to
specify these characters. If an existing parameter includes a '\'
character, but this is not followed by either a ';' or '#' character,
then the interpretation of this parameter will not change following
application of this fix pack.

';' and '#' characters may be required in Informix database xa_open
strings.

o SupportPac MA0C: WebSphere MQ - Publish/Subscribe.
-------------------------------------------------

This SupportPac is now incorporated into WebSphere MQ. See the
install section above for instructions on how to install this Fix
Pack if you have installed the MA0C SupportPac.

o JMS Performance changes
-----------------------

0. Introduction.
================
WebSphere MQ V5.3 CSD8 for distributed platforms introduces an
additional set of tuning options that can be used to enable improved
JMS publish/subscribe performance in selected persistent messaging
scenarios.

Significant performance improvements are possible in suitable JMS
publish subscribe environments which make heavy use of persistent
messages and exhibit a low degree of concurrent activity.

1. JMS configuration
====================
Four new properties are added to the ConnectionFactory and
TopicConnectionFactory administrable objects.
These are settable through the JMSAdmin tool.
Getter and setter methods are provided on the MQSession object to
allow the setting of these properties to be more finely tuned,
however it is recommended that these attributes are managed
through the administrable objects where possible.

The four new properties are:

ReceiveIsolation
----------------
ReceiveIsolation is used to determine when messages can be seen
and dealt with by MessageConsumers.

ReceiveIsolation is an integer attribute and valid values are:
JMSC.MQJMS_RCVISOL_COMMITTED
The MessageConsumer will only see committed messages.
This is the current default behavior.
JMSC.MQJMS_RCVISOL_UNCOMMITTED
The MessageConsumer is able to receive uncommitted messages.
Although the MessageConsumer may be given visibility to an
uncommitted message it will not be allowed to commit such a
message unless the producer also commits. This option should
only be used if the effect of the message is not made visible
outside the MQ recovery domain before the commit completes.
Note that setting this option ALLOWS the queue manager to
deliver an inflight message to a consumer, but that it does
not REQUIRE the queue manager to make inflight messages
available to a consumer.

JMSAdmin configuration data for this attribute:
JMSAdmin longname: RECEIVEISOLATION
JMSAdmin shortname: RCVISOL
JMSAdmin values: COMMITTED / UNCOMMITTED / DEFAULT

ProcessDuration
---------------
ProcessDuration allows the consumer to indicate how long it will
take in dealing with any received message before acknowledging it.
ProcessDuration is an integer attribute and valid values are:

JMSC.MQJMS_PROCESSING_UNKNOWN
It is not known how long the consumer will hold the message
before acknowledging the message. This is the current
default behavior.

JMSC.MQJMS_PROCESSING_SHORT
The consumer will acknowledge the message after a 'short'
interval. Setting MQJMS_PROCESSING_SHORT allows the queue
manager to deliver the message synchronously to an active
consumer. In conjunction with MQJMS_RCVISOL_UNCOMMITTED this
option can enable synchronous delivery in a transactional
environment. If the queue manager delivers the message
synchronously and the consumer does NOT acknowledge the
message after a 'short' interval then the flow of
publications through this queue manager may be interrupted.

JMSAdmin configuration data for this attribute:
JMSAdmin longname: PROCESSDURATION
JMSAdmin shortname: PROCDUR
JMSAdmin values: UNKNOWN / SHORT / DEFAULT

OutcomeNotification
-------------------
OutcomeNotification will determine whether the MessageConsumer
needs to be informed of the outcome of a Message acknowledgement
(or a Session.commit() in a transacted Session).

OutcomeNotification is a boolean attribute and valid values are:
YES
When a message is acknowledged the MessageConsumer will be
informed whether the Message has successfully committed or
been rolled-back. This is the current default behavior.

NO
When a message is acknowledged the MessageConsumer will not be
informed of whether the Message has successfully committed or
been rolled-back (though the result will still be one or the
other, as before). Applications for which the correct
response to a rolled back exception is to ignore the exception
can typically use this option. For example a server
application which receives a message, sends a reply, and
commits can typically safely use this option. In the event of
the transaction rolling back then the original request message
will be reinstated with the BackoutCount incremented and
presented to the application on its next receive to be
reprocessed.

JMSAdmin configuration data for this attribute:
JMSAdmin longname: OUTCOMENOTIFICATION
JMSAdmin shortname: NOTIFY
JMSAdmin values: YES / NO

OptimisticPublication
---------------------
OptimisticPublication allows the queue manager to defer some error
checking when a transacted MessageProducer/TopicPublisher produces
a message. OptimisticPublication is a boolean attribute and valid
values are:

NO
The queue manager will validate the publication request before
control is returned to the message producer. This is the
current default behavior.

YES
This allows the queue manager to overlap processing the
message in the interval between producing the message and
committing the message. In the case where the message can be
delivered synchronously to one or more consumers (as a result
of MQJMS_RCVISOL_UNCOMMITTED and MQJMS_PROCESSING_SHORT) then
if one or more of those consumers rolls back its transaction
then the producers transaction will also roll back.

JMSAdmin configuration data for this attribute:
JMSAdmin longname: OPTIMISTICPUBLICATION
JMSAdmin shortname: OPTPUB
JMSAdmin values: NO / YES

2. Broker configuration
=======================

A. WebSphere MQ publish subscribe broker
-------------------------------------

JmsStreamPrefix='string'

This is an attribute of the WebSphere MQ publish subscribe broker
and is specified in the "Broker:" configuration stanza. All
streams whose names begin with the JmsStreamPrefix are restricted
to JMS semantics. In particular they do not support retained
messages and relative message ordering is not guaranteed across
publishers. The WebSphere MQ publish subscribe broker optimizes
processing of publications which are restricted to JMS semantics.

There is no default value for this attribute.

For example, JmsStreamPrefix=JMS could be specified to indicate
that the streams 'JMS.STREAM.PURCHASE' and 'JMS.STREAM.SALES' were
both restricted to JMS semantics.

B. WebSphere MQ Message Broker
The SupportPac, "WebSphere Business Integration Message Broker -
MQOptimizedFlow Node ( IA0Z )" will enable you to install a new
node into the message brokers toolkit which provides a
Publish-Subscribe message flow for MQ-JMS messages optimized for
use in the environments described above.

3. Conclusion
==============
In a trivial publish subscribe benchmark where a single consumer
consumes all messages produced by a single producer then performance
improved by over 100% by setting MQ_RCVISOL_UNCOMMITTED,
MQJMS_PROCESSING_SHORT,outcomeNotification=NO,
OptimisticPublication=YES and by using a stream whose name started
with the JmsStreamPrefix of the WebSphere MQ publish/subscribe
broker. This test was run in an environment where a high performance
disk cache was active. In an environment with higher latency disks
then a greater improvement would be likely. In more sophisticated
benchmarks then the cost of reliable I/O can usually be amortized
across a large number of producers and consumers and the potential
performance benefits of a more synchronous implementation are
typically outweighed by the reduced application independence such a
design imposes.

H) Fix Pack CSD07 (PTF U496731)
----------------------------
There is no special information for this fix pack.

I) Fix Pack CSD06 (PTF U489865)
----------------------------

o SSL:
In January 2004 some certificates supplied as part of the default
Queue Manager Key Repository expired. The certificates were
automatically inserted into key databases at key database creation
time. These expired certificates affect the UNIX platforms and the
Windows platform in slightly different ways, so please see the
appropriate section below for actions you need to take.

Expired certificates on the UNIX Platforms
==========================================
On the UNIX Platforms the following two certificates are affected by
this:

The certificate labelled
'VeriSign Class 3 CA Individual Subscriber-Persona Not Validated'
which expired on the 7th January and

The certificate labelled
'VeriSign Class 2 CA-Persona Not Validated'
which expired on the 6th January

The expired certificates impact MQ and GSKit (the program used on
UNIX platforms to administer certificates) in two ways:

1. SSL connections requiring one of the recently expired certificates
to authenticate personal certificates will fail.
2. Due to a GSKit defect it may be impossible to create new key
databases.

This CSD provides a new version of GSKit which contains a fix for
problem 2 so the expired certificate no longer prevent the creation
of a key database. The newly created key databases will also include
the replacement (valid) certificates from Verisign, which addresses
problem 1.

Customers who are already using these certificates to validate
connections will not be affected by problem 2 (they have already
created the key database) but they will need to manually upgrade the
certificate to the valid versions to address problem 1. The
replacement certificates can be obtained from Verisign and inserted
into the key database using the steps described below:

Step One - Obtain the replacement certificates. Customers need to
contact VeriSign who should provide instructions for obtaining
currently valid certificates.

Step Two - Put the replacement certificates into the keystore:
2.1. Start iKeyman
2.2. Open keystore
2.3. Select "signer certificates"
2.4. Click add certificate.
2.5. Select type "Base64-encode ASCII data"
2.6. Enter the file name saved in Step One above and click OK or use
the "Browse" button to select the file saved in Step One and
click Open followed by OK.
2.7. There will be a pop-up window to enter a label for the new
certificate. Enter a label (e.g., Verisign Class 3) and click OK.
2.8. Repeat for all required certificates
2.9. End iKeyman or close the keystore.
2.10. Recycle the queue manager to pick up the new certificates.

Expired certificates on the Windows Platform
============================================
On the Windows platform the following three certificates are affected
by this:

The certificate labelled/issued to
'VeriSign Class 3 CA Individual Subscriber-Persona Not Validated'
which expired on the 7th January and

The certificate labelled/issued to
'VeriSign Class 2 CA-Persona Not Validated'
which expired on the 6th January and

The certificate labelled/issued to
'For VeriSign authorized testing only. No assurances (C)VS 1997'
which expired on the 4th March 2003.

The expired certificates impact MQ because SSL connections requiring
one of these CA certificates to authenticate personal certificates
will fail.

Customers who are using these certificates to validate connections
will need to manually upgrade the certificate to the valid versions.
The replacement certificates can be obtained from Verisign and
inserted into the key database using the steps described below:

Step One - Obtain the replacement certificates. Customers need to
contact VeriSign who should provide instructions for obtaining
currently valid certificates.

Step two - Put the replacement certificates into the keystore:
1. Open MQ Explorer
2. Right click the Queue Manager that requires the updated
certificates. Select 'Properties'
3. Click the 'SSL' tab
4. Click the 'Manage SSL Certificates...' button
5. Click the 'Add...' button
6. Select the location where the certificates are (either a file or
copy them from another store - depending on how you obtained the
certificates from Verisign)
7. Click 'Add'
8. Repeat for all required certificates
9. Close the MQ Explorer GUI windows.

Importing Certificates
======================
There is a problem with the GSKit command 'gsk6cmd' which may affect
customers who edit key databases from the command line on UNIX. You
may need to edit the GSKit file 'ikminit.properties' to change the
stanza DEFAULT_KEYDB_LOCATION_CMS from '.' to blank ('') - or comment
this line out with a '#' character. If you do not do this GSKit may
place a '.' in front of the location of a key database which you are
editing which can cause problems, especially if you fully qualify the
path to the key database. You can find the 'ikminit.properties' file
in the following platform dependant locations:

AIX /usr/opt/ibm/gskak/classes
HP11 /opt/ibm/gsk6/classes
Linux /usr/local/ibm/gsk6/classes
Solaris /opt/ibm/gsk6/classes

o New Queue Attribute

This WebSphere MQ V5.3 update introduces a new queue attribute
NPMCLASS which applies to local and model queues. NPMCLASS can
take one of two values:

1.NPMCLASS(NORMAL) - This is the default value and indicates
that non-persistent messages on this queue are only lost following
a failure, or a queue manager shutdown. These messages will be
discarded in the event of a queue manager restart.

2.NPMCLASS(HIGH) - This setting enables non-persistent messages on
this queue to be retained across a queue manager restart.
Non-persistent messages may still be lost in the event of a
failure.

The WebSphere MQ V5.3 JMS classes are extended to allow exploitation
of the NPMCLASS queue attribute. This is done by adding a new value,
JMSC.MQJMS_PER_NPHIGH, to the list of persistence modes accepted by
the Destination.setPersistence(int persistence) method. If this
value is set and the underlying queue(s) supports it, then persistent
JMS messages will be mapped to non-persistent (MQPER_NOT_PERSISTENT)
MQ messages. If the underlying queue(s) do not specify
NPMCLASS(HIGH), then persistent JMS messages will map to persistent
(MQPER_PERSISTENT) MQ messages.

In order to determine if the underlying queue supports NPMCLASS then
when JMSC.MQJMS_PER_NPHIGH is specified the JMS classes will issue
an MQINQ against the base queue. JMSC.MQJMS_PER_NPHIGH should not
be specified when the JMS application is not authorized to inquire
upon the base queue.

It is the administrator's responsibility to ensure that all
appropriate queues specify NPMCLASS(HIGH). Note that for
Publish/Subscribe applications, both the publisher and subscriber
queues must be specify NPMCLASS(HIGH).

For maximum reliability it is advised that the JMS Persistent
attribute is mapped to WebSphere MQ persistence rather than use of
JMSC.MQJMS_PER_NPHIGH.

o JMS1.1

WebSphere MQ classes for Java Message Service (also referred to as
WebSphere MQ JMS) are a set of Java classes that implement Sun's Java
Message Service (JMS) interfaces to enable JMS programs to access
WebSphere MQ systems. This WebSphere MQ V5.3 update implements
Version 1.1 of the JMS API specification, which is backwards
compatible with Version 1.0.2b. Both the point-to-point and
publish/subscribe models of JMS are supported. New features of the
Version 1.1 implementation are shown here:

Provides a common set of interfaces for a domain independent view of
both the point-to-point and publish/subscribe messaging domains,
Semantic differences between the messaging domains are retained,
Enables actions from both the point to point and publish/subscribe
domains to be included in the same transaction, Domain unification
provides a simplified client programming model. JMS 1.1 cross-domain
objects can only be used where both point-to-point and
publish/subscribe use the same connection properties

For more details, refer to the "WebSphere MQ Using Java" book, book
form number SC34-6066-02 included with this fix pack. This is in
file csqzaw12.pdf which is contained within the download CSD image
file (for example U489865.tar.Z for the CSD06 image file),
along with the Solaris CSD image file.

There is a minor error in this version of the Using Java book:
In Chapter 10, "Writing WebSphere MQ JMS applications" and
Chapter 12, "Writing WebSphere MQ JMS 1.1 applications"
In the section "Specifying a range of ports for client connections",
the last sentence of the first paragraph should contain the phrase
"... or a range of ports ...",
and not "... or a range of points ...".

For JMS1.0.2 applications that use accessor methods on
ConnectionFactory objects and are compiled using a Java SDK1.3
compiler and are to be deployed on BOTH WebSphere MQ V5.3 CSD06 or
later and WebSphere MQ V5.3 CSD05 or earlier, special measures are
required to ensure correct execution in both environments. Failure
to do this might result in a NoSuchMethodError exception being thrown
by the JVM.

To avoid this either:
- compile the application using the CSD05, or earlier, version of the
WebSphere MQ classes for JMS.
- or compile the application using Java SDK1.4 or later on either
environment.

J) Fix Pack CSD05 (PTF U487899)
----------------------------

MQ XA applications

This Fix Pack (CSD) modifies the support for COBOL applications which
make calls to MQ from within a CICS environment. If you use CICS with
MQ then following the installation of this CSD you may have to rebuild
some of your environment according to the instructions below.

1. If you use MQ in a 2-phase environment from within CICS then you must
rebuild you MQ switch-load following the installation of this CSD.
The updated instructions for building the switch load file are shown
below and are replacements for Chapters 20, 25 and 30 in the
WebSphere MQ Application Programming Guide.

2. If you use MQ from Microfocus COBOL applications in a CICS
environment then you must rebuild your COBOL Runtime using the
modified instructions below for preparing the COBOL Runtime using the
cicsmkcobol command.

3. If you are using the Extended Transactional Client on UNIX platforms
you must rebuild your applications linking against the libmqiz and
libmqmcs libraries as well as the libmqic library appropriate to you
platform and application. Typically this means adding
-lmqiz and -lmqmcs or
-lmqiz_r and lmqmcs_r to the link step.

4. If you are using MQ as a resource manager in a Tuxedo application
then you must rebuild all programs that call into MQ's XA functions.
For these applications you must re-link with libmqz and libmqmcs as
well as libmqm.

5. If you are using MQ as a resource manager in an Encina application
then you must rebuild all programs that call into MQ's XA functions.
For these applications you must re-link with libmqz and libmqmcs as
well as libmqm.

Update the documentation to show this change:

Sun Solaris
Application Programming Guide - Chapter 30: Subsection "Preparing CICS Programs"

Preparing CICS programs

Preparing the CICS switch load file.

XA switch modules are provided to enable you to link CICS with
WebSphere MQ:

Table 27. Essential Code for CICS applications (Solaris)
+--------------------------+--------------+-----------------------------------+
|Description |C (source) |C (exec) - add to your XAD.Stanza |
+--------------------------+--------------+-----------------------------------+
|XA initialization routine |amqzscix.c |amqzsc - CICS for Solaris |
+--------------------------+--------------+-----------------------------------+

For WebSphere MQ 5.3 CSD 5 or later use the following command to
build the Switch load file:

export MQM_HOME=/opt/mqm

cc $MQM_HOME/samp/amqzscix.c -I/opt/encina/include \
-mt -G -o amqzscix /opt/cics/lib/regxa_swxa.o \
-L$MQM_HOME/lib -R$MQM_HOME/lib -L/opt/cics/lib \
-L/opt/encina/lib -L/opt/dcelocal/lib \
-lcicsrt -lEncina -lEncServer -ldce -lthread -lsocket -lc -lnsl -ldl \
-lmqmcics -lmqmxa -lmqz -lmqmcs -lmqmzse

For Earlier versions of WebSphere MQ use the following command to
build the Switch load file:

cc -s -I/opt/encina/include amqzscix.c -G -o amqzscix -eCICS_XA_Init \
-L/opt/encina/lib -L/opt/dcelocal/lib -L/opt/mqm/lib \
/opt/cics/lib/regxa_swxa.o \
-lmqmcics -lmqmxa -lmqm -lmqmcs -lmqmzse \
-lcicsrt -lEncina -lEncSfs -ldce

You can find more information about supporting CICS transactions in
the WebSphere MQ System Administration Guide.

CICS on Open Systems support
WebSphere MQ on UNIX systems support CICS on Open Systems via the XA
interface. You must ensure that CICS applications are linked to the
threaded version of the MQ libraries.

The following sections describe how to build your MQ applications for
use in the CICS environment.

Preparing CICS COBOL programs using Micro Focus COBOL
To use Micro Focus COBOL, follow these steps:

1. Add the WebSphere MQ COBOL run-time library module to the run-time
library using the following command:
cicsmkcobol -L/opt/mqm/lib /opt/mqm/lib/libmqmcbrt.o -lmqz

This creates the Micro Focus COBOL language method file and enables
the CICS run-time COBOL library to call WebSphere MQ on UNIX
systems.

Note:
cicsmkcobol must be run only when one of the following is installed:
. New version or release of Micro Focus COBOL
. New version or release of TXSeries for Solaris
. New version or release of any supported database product
(for COBOL transactions only)
. New version or release of WebSphere MQ

2. Export the following environment variables:
COBCPY=/opt/mqm/inc export COBCPY

3. Translate, compile, and link the program by typing:
cicstcl -l COBOL -e <yourprog>.ccp

Preparing CICS C programs
You build CICS C programs using the standard CICS facilities:

Export one of the following environment variables:
LDFLAGS = "-L/opt/mqm/lib -L/opt/cics/lib -lmqmcs -lmqm -lmqmzse -lsocket -lnsl -ldl"

Translate, compile, and link the program by typing:
cicstcl -l C amqscic0.ccs

CICS C sample transaction
Sample C source for a CICS WebSphere MQ transaction is provided by
AMQSCIC0.CCS. The transaction reads messages from the transmission
queue SYSTEM.SAMPLE.CICS.WORKQUEUE on the default queue manager and
places them onto the local queue whose name is contained in the
transmission header of the message. Any failures will be sent to the
queue SYSTEM.SAMPLE.CICS.DLQ. The sample MQSC script AMQSCIC0.TST may
be used to create these queues and sample input queues.

K) Fix Pack CSD04 (PTF U486877)
----------------------------

o 73019,72805,73069 - Firewall Support

The restrictions on the use of the local address property, used to
support firewall requirements from base Java and JMS have been
removed in fix pack CSD04.

However the following new information will be put into the JMS
publication information under firewall support and will be marked
as iSeries only.

When using Local Address for firewall sockets the HostName
MUST always be explicitly stated in the Java/JMS calls even if
the Client and Server are on the same machine.

For example, use setHostName(< actual local host name >) on
MQTopicConnectionFactory to enable the firewall support to
work correctly when the Client and Server are on the same
machine. Do not allow the HostName to default to localhost if
firewall support is required.

L) Fix Pack CSD03 (PTF U485560)
----------------------------

o 73019,72805,73069 - Firewall Support

Restrictions on the use of the local address property, used to
support firewall requirements from base Java and JMS.

1.When the Client is on one machine and the Server is on a
different machine the local address property IP address must
ALWAYS be specified along with the port range.

2.Do not use the local address property on machines with more
than one network card.

M) Fix Pack CSD01 (PTF U484025)
----------------------------

o 62221 - Upgrade to GSKit 6.0.3.30

This fix pack contains an upgrade to the IBM Global Security
(GSKit) product. This fix pack installs a new level of the GSKit
product. Please follow the instructions shown in the
Installation and Maintenance information in this PTF memo to
install/re-install this component of the fix pack.

o 67831 - Include "properties" files in com.ibm.mq.jar

Fix pack CSD01 moves the "mqji*.properties" files from their
original position in directory "../java/lib" to "com.ibm.mq.jar".
Any subsequent product release, including the recent product
refreshes at service levels 5.3.0.1 and 5.3.0.2, will delete the
original files and also remove the "../java/lib" entry from
CLASSPATH. Fix pack CSD01 (and any later fix pack) only adds the
files to "com.ibm.mq.jar" - it does not remove the old ones, or
update CLASSPATH. To prevent problems in future due to using an
old version of these files instead of the new one, you are
recommended to manually remove the "../java/lib" entry from
CLASSPATH, or to put it after the "../java/lib/com.ibm.mq.jar"
entry.

1. TXSeries CICS and IBM WebSphere MQ Extended Transactional
Client

If you are using TXSeries CICS as the XA compliant Transaction
Manager to coordinate the IBM WebSphere MQ Extended
Transactional Client, then either the TPM or AXLIB parameter
of the xa_open string must be supplied, see the IBM WebSphere
MQ Extended Transactional Clients book, Chapter 3.
Configuring an extended transactional client, for more details
of these parameters.

The version of TXSeries CICS used must be:
V5.0 + PTF 1 + e-fix 1 or later PTF

Note that the pre-build switch load file amqczsc is built
for CICS V4.3, so is of no use, see below for instructions to
build a CICS V5.0 switch load file.

2. IBM WebSphere MQ V5.3 Server and IBM WebSphere MQ Extended
Transactional Client

The service level of the IBM WebSphere MQ V5.3 server, to
which the IBM WebSphere MQ Extended Transactional Client is
connected, must be 5.3.0.3 (fix pack CSD03) or later service
levels 5.3.0.x.

3. TXSeries CICS and IBM WebSphere MQ V5.3 Server or IBM WebSphere
MQ Extended Transactional Client

Note that the pre-build switch load file (Server: amqzsc; Client:
amqczsc) is built for CICS V4.3, to build a CICS V5.0 switch load
file, do the following:

export MQM_HOME=/opt/mqm

For IBM WebSphere MQ V5.3 Server:

cc $MQM_HOME/samp/amqzscix.c -I/opt/encina/include \
-mt -G -o amqzsc5 /opt/cics/lib/regxa_swxa.o \
-L$MQM_HOME/lib -R$MQM_HOME/lib -L/opt/cics/lib -L/opt/encina/lib \

-lcicsrt -lEncina -lEncServer -ldce -lthread -lsocket -lc -lnsl -ldl \
-lmqmcics -lmqmxa -lmqz -lmqmcs -lmqmzse

For IBM WebSphere MQ Extended Transactional Client:

cc $MQM_HOME/samp/amqzscix.c -I/opt/encina/include \
-mt -G -o amqczsc5 /opt/cics/lib/regxa_swxa.o \

G) Fix Pack CSD08 (PTF U497536)
----------------------------

This is the seventh fix pack for IBM WebSphere MQ for Sun Solaris
Version 5.3 from IBM. It is delivered via PTF U497536 for APAR
IY53862.

Number of APARs in fix pack = 50.

It contains fixes for all the problems listed below:

IC39515 - Cumulative maintenance #07 (CSD08) for WebSphere MQ for Windows V5.3
IY53820 - Cumulative maintenance #07 (CSD08) for WebSphere MQ for AIX V5.3
IY53823 - Cumulative maintenance #07 (CSD08) for WebSphere MQ for HP-UX V5.3
IY53862 - Cumulative maintenance #07 (CSD08) for WebSphere MQ for Solaris V5.3
IY53871 - Cumulative maintenance #07 (CSD08) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for Intel V5.3
IY53872 - Cumulative maintenance #07 (CSD08) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for zSeries V5.3

IC39048 - JMS client applications will cease processing messages for
no apparent reason. Message consumers will never receive
messages despite messages being available. No exceptions
are thrown.
Trace shows that a SocketException "connection reset"
occurred. This is wrapped in a MQRC 2009 error.
IC39409 - A channel is defined with a short retry interval. For
example 4 seconds. When the channel ends with an error,
the retry messages occur at 10 second intervals rather than
4.
IC39601 - Clustering. Many AMQ9456 error messages are found in the
queue manager error logs when queues have not been used for
some time and have this has allowed the subscriptions to
these queues to expire.
IC40221 - The PartnerName in the MQCXP structure is not set to the
logged-on user name from the client when passed to an exit
on a SVRCONN channel.
IC40227 - The user creates a lot of dynamic queues due to the
caching which occurs from the channel processes (they
cache 200 queue handles per channel). Over a long period,
the logs fill up and the queue manager reports problems
relating to a lack of available log space.
IC40444 - C++: MQI calls return an 2009 "(MQRC_CONNECTION_BROKEN)"
when the Queue Manager is restarted.
IC40533 - JMS: If using MQConnection Caching an exception
javax.resource.spi.ResourceAllocationException is thrown.
Linked exception is NullPointerException thrown from
com.ibm.mq.ClientConnectionRequestInfo.fixedEquals method.
IC40733 - Publish/subscribe support pack MA0C: The broker
intermittently stops with an FDC file with probe XC130031.
This reports an exception in the pubsub worker process
AMQFCXBA.
IC40975 - A message is put under syncpoint and expires before it is
committed. During this time, messages are put and got from
the queue. The queue depth shown in runmqsc is non-zero,
amqsbcg does not display the message(s) left on the queue,
implying they are in a unit of work, but dspmqtrn and
amqldmpa outputs confirm there is no residual units of
work outstanding.
IC41163 - JMS: Putting to a remote fully qualified queue which is not
in a cluster results in a failure after upgrading from
CSD05 to CSD06. This results in error:
com.ibm.mq.MQException: MQJE001: Completion Code 2, Reason
2045
IC41195 - JMS: Publish Subscribe: An application publishes a message
and then tries to register a subscriber for that message.
As expected a 2033 error is returned but a null pointer
exception is generated:
Exception:javax.jms.JMSException: MQJMS1016: an internal
error has occurred.
Detail:{0}Linked exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
TopicSubscriber tsubscriber = tSession.createSubscriber(t).
IC42309 - Connection handle leak with MQ 5.3 on Windows using MQ JMS
which results in a mqrc_handle_not_available error.
IY53290 - FDC files are created on two program threads when one
thread is opening a pre-existing dynamic queue while
another thread is considering it for reuse. The FDC files
may have probe IDs of XC304020, XY398007, AO175001 and
AO173001. Object damaged/wounded/missing FDCs can follow.
The problem is most likely to be seen as problems on two
separate threads at the same time.
IY50293 - An FDC file is produced for a read error - disk full. The
probe ids in the file are
AD030001 adiReadFile xecF_E_UNEXPECTED_SYSTEM_RC
AQ168001 aqpReadData arcE_PAST_EOF
IY53827 - A queue manager agent process ends after a SIGSEGV in
aqhAllocMsg.
IY53925 - A Solaris application is linked with single threaded MQ
libraries (-lmqm, etc). If the application calls MQCONN,
then MQDISC, then calls fork() and calls MQCONN in the
child process, the call returns a reason code of 2059
(MQRC_Q_MGR_NOT_AVAILABLE), and an FDC file with probe ID
ZC002040 from component zcpAttachPipe is produced.
IY53946 - User apps trap if they specify a Format in a message header
which does not describe the following data.
IY53967 - Users using Dual Unit of Work find MQ traps.
IY54058 - An application using MQCONNX and connecting before any
other WMQ command is run on the system crashes when with
non-mqm uid resources are removed on the system as key
semaphores had been created with the wrong uid and gid.
IY54314 - An infinite succession of FDC files are created with
probe ID AO180000 from function aouLocateMultipleEntryName.
The same FDC can also be created when deleting an dynamic
object which is no longer in use.
IY54397 - After using the setmqaut command with an object type qmgr
and the -remove flag, all attempts to issue
setmqaut -remove commands against that queue manager with
object type qmgr result in:
AMQ7085: Object , type qmgr not found.
IY54507 - SSL: The Certification Revocation List (CRL) LDAP password
is encrypted before being written to the AUTHINFO object.
If the encrypted password contains a NULL, x0, the password
is truncated at the NULL and then space filled. This
causes the password to be invalid when unencrypted, and so
authentication with the CRL LDAP server fails.
The message AMQ9667:Bad password for CRL LDAP server; SSL
channel A.TO.B is written to the error log.
Also, in runmqsc the password is returned as incomplete
when the AUTHINFO object is displayed.
IY54508 - Clustering: If CLWLMode=FAST in mqs.ini, calling MQXCLWLN
from a cluster workload exit returns 2102,
MQRC_ENVIRONMENT_ERROR.
IY55063 - Errors in setmqaut commands generated by amqoamd.
A warning message is generated:
FAIL : setmqaut cannot generate +crt authority for
storage_class objects, as none currently exist.
An invalid auth spec is generated, resulting in this error
message when the generated setmqaut commands are executed:
AMQ7097: You gave an authorization specification that is
not valid.
IY55290 - Instructions for compiling amqzscg (source for the MQ task
termination exit library) in shipped sample amqzscgx.c are
incorrect.
IY55558 - Channels stop sending messages because a message is stuck
on the transmit queue. If the internal MQGET from the
transmit queue fails the message is left on the queue, the
channel goes into RETRYING. When the channel restarts at
the retry interval the message fails again. This blocks
the channel and stops later messages from flowing. This
fix moves the failing message to the dead letter queue.
IY55707 - JAVA: MissingResourceException then rc 2102 when an entry
cannot be found in a message file.
Details of the exception:
An MQJE001: Completion Code 2, Reason 2102
(MQRC_RESSOURCE_PROBLEM) can be thrown:

IY56525 - Channel stops when trying to send a large message. The
channel must have CONVERT set and be sending a message
which can expand on conversion: for example if the target
CCSID is 1208 (UTF-8 Unicode). This may be accompanied by
an FDC file with probe XC023005, and description 12 - There
is not enough memory available now from iconv.
manual CLUSSDR, the attribute is not used when the channel
is started the second time. Instead, the LOCLADDR is
copied from the CLUSRCVR in the cluster cache, if present.
The attribute is used if there is no cache copy of the
CLUSRCVR, that is if the channel is being started for the
first time. Change this so that the IP address and port
that the outbound channel binds to is a merger of the IP
address from the LOCLADDR on the manual CLUSSDR, and the
port range from the cluster cache. If there is no port
range in the cache, the port range from the CLUSSDR
LOCLADDR is used.
IY56696 - dspmqtrn is incorrectly returning 71 'Unexpected Error'
when 102 'No Transaction Found' is expected.
IY56725 - If an application calls MQCONN/MDISC in a loop in an MQ
client application, a memory small leak may be seen.
IY56861 - Problems recording media imaging for linear logging:
rcdmqimg hangs after a segv.
With the -z option rcdmqimg runs to completion without a
problem but without the -z option the expected messages are
written to the MQ logfiles but the command does not
terminate.
IY56956 - The UNIX man pages do not show the same information for
SETMQAUT as the system administration manual.
IY57062 - SSL: When using a multithreaded client application
connecting to MQ using SSL, an FDC file reporting a SIGSEGV
with probe XC130003 is received.
IY57488 - An application is getting message MQJMS1006 invalid value
for JMS_IBM_CHARARTER_SET:ISO8859-1 or for
JMS_IBM_CHARARTER_SET:ISO8859_1.
IY57683 - Channels: When a channel is started, the short and long
retry counts, SHORTRTS and LONGRTS, are not always reset.
IY57774 - When a JMS Publisher publishes messages on a topic, the
first message takes a long time to be published.
IY58921 - SSL with Clustering: SIGSEGV in the repository manager.
IY59008 - Clustering: SIGSEGV occurs in AMQRRMFA process on systems
using large number of clusters or clustered objects.
IY60052 - At fixpack 07 level, if a queue damaged many FDC files with
Probe Ids of AO173001 from component aouLockObjectCatalogue
and AO175001 from component aouLockQHandle. The queue
manager then hangs.
IY60601 - JMS: Memory leak when users create many MQQueueReceivers
within a single session.
IY60895 - An FDC file is created with Probe Id ZF048020, from
component zfu_as_searchprincipallist with a major error
code of 16 (EBUSY) returned from xcsSetgrent.
PQ89406 - JMS: A JMS QueueReceiver with JMSXDeliveryCount < 1 will
ignore MQ messages that have been rolled back once.
An MDB with selector whatever and JMSXDeliveryCount < 2
will ignore MQ messages that have been rolled back once.
An MDB with selector whatever and JMSXDeliveryCount < 1
will not pick up any MQ messages.
SE14442 - The PNGMQMCHL command (iSeries only) and the MQSC
command 'PING CHANNEL' fail when SSL is enabled, but the
channels start and operate correctly.
SE14675 - RUNMQLSR (MQ threaded listener) is ending unexpectedly with
an exception (MCH3601 on iSeries) when ending dual
pipelined channels.
SE15031 - The Queue Manager ends unexpectedly and creates an FDC file
with probe id AQ080000, from component aqhLoadMsgDetails
and Major Errorcode of STOP_ALL.
76916 - SSL:JAVA: setting the tcf.setSSLPeerName("") the following
exception is created:
javax.jms.JMSException: MQJMS1006:

78176 - JMS: add instructions to sample file JMSTestApplet.java
78814 - JMS: creating a Temporary Queue results in a
NullPointerException from
com/ibm/mq/jms/MQConnection.createTemporaryQueue.
79498 - A long running application which spawns threads that
connect to MQ, but which end the thread without explicitly
disconnecting, leave unused agent processes running.
79892 - JMS: Connection Meta Data is reporting JMS version as 1.0
but this should be 1.1.
79906 - an FDC file is created with Probe Id XC130004, from
Component xehExceptionHandler. The function stack shows
the function executing is xcsCheckSubpoolProcessH.
80503 - Inquire qstatus with tracing on results in the agent
process ending with an FDC file created with Probe Id of
XC130031 from Component xehExceptionHandler and the last
entry in the MQM Function Stack is
kqiInquireQueueHandleStatus.
80772 - Oracle. An application using the Oracle database calls
dlclose then exit, at which point the application gets a
SIGSEGV and a core dump.
81303 - JMS: The JMSXDeliveryCount is incorrectly calculated.
81611.1 - Add information in Doc section for APAR IC34863
(shipped in Fix Pack 3 - CSD03). See WebSphere(R) MQ Using
Java, Chapter 9. The WebSphere MQ base Java classes and
interfaces, Section MQException above.
82119 - JMS: When the broker and queue manager are on different
system types, an javax.jms.JMSException is created:
MQJMS1087: Unrecognizable or invalid RFH content.

H) Fix Pack CSD07 (PTF U496731)
----------------------------

This is the sixth fix pack for IBM WebSphere MQ for Sun Solaris
Version 5.3 from IBM. It is delivered via PTF U496731 for APAR
IY50378.

Number of APARs in fix pack = 46.

It contains fixes for all the problems listed below:

IC38022 - Cumulative maintenance #06 (fix pack CSD07) for WebSphere MQ for Windows V5.3
IY50364 - Cumulative maintenance #06 (fix pack CSD07) for WebSphere MQ for AIX V5.3
IY50375 - Cumulative maintenance #06 (fix pack CSD07) for WebSphere MQ for HP-UX V5.3
IY50381 - Cumulative maintenance #05 (fix pack CSD07) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for Intel V5.3

IY50378 - Cumulative maintenance #06 (fix pack CSD07) for WebSphere MQ for Solaris V5.3

IC38202 - FDC file indicating a sigsegv exception in component
rrxReportError.
IC38311 - An API Exit puts a message within the BEFORE CMIT entry
using MQPUT with SYNCPOINT which fails when runmqchl is a
SENDER or SERVER channel type. Then it gets a 2195, thereby
failing the channel. An FDC file is created with a Probe
ID of AT032010, from component atmStartOp.
IC38899 - JMS: When using a message selector that contains either an
IS NULL or IS NOT NULL clause, messages that meet the
selection criteria are not detected and are left on the
queue.
IC38907 - If the queue manager name passed to amqiclen contains a
.(dot), for example MY.QMGR, amqiclen does not produce any
output.
IC39007 - JMS: After deploying a Message Driven Bean (MDB) that uses
an ALIAS queue, the listener port that is bound to the
ALIAS queue fails to start, and the following messages
appear in the servers SystemOut.log file:
JMSExceptionL E WMSG0018E: Error on JMSConnection for MDB
<MDB name> , JMSDestination <destination name> :
javax.jms.JMSException: MQJMS2008: failed to open MQ queue
at com.ibm.mq.jms.services.ConfigEnvironment.
newException(ConfigEnvironment.java:540)
.....
com.ibm.mq.MQException: MQJE001: Completion Code 2,
Reason 2035 at com.ibm.mq.MQQueueManager.
accessQueue(MQQueueManager.java:1527)
.....
IC39432 - JMS: When sending a message to a queue in CCSID 819 then
receiving the message and putting the message back to the
queue exception received. Throwing javax.jms.JMSException:
MQJMS1006: invalid value for JMS_IBM_Character_Set:ISO8859_1
IC39436 - JMS: If a Connection has been used to create a number of
Message Consumers, and an exception is detected on that
connection, the Exception Listener for that Connection is
called multiple times with the same exception.
IC39898 - JMS: When setting the correlationId in a message and
setting the same selector on the MessageConsumer, the
message is not received. This works with base ascii
characters but with characters greater than hex 80 or
Unicode in the correlationId the get fails.
IC39916 - When rcdmqing reaches a temporary dynamic queue while
recording the objects, it creates an AMQ7087 msg:
Object AMQ.xxxxxx , type queue is a temporary object and
fails to record the rest of the objects.
IY29028 - SDR channels stay in INITIALIZING state during start-up.
IY35297 - Clustering: MQSeries did not return an error when an
MQCOMMIT was not successful in a clustering environment.
IY47766 - After enabling pipelining on a channel that sends messages
larger then 4MB, regular AMQ9514 'Channel <name> is in
use' and AMQ9558 'Remote Channel is not currently
available' messages are reported.
IY49438 - MQBEGIN fails with RC= 2128 ( MQRC_UOW_IN_PROGRESS ).
Two applications connect to the same queue manager and they
run transactions using two phase commit at the same time.
If one of them executes a transaction (not using two phase
commit) without an MQBEGIN after an MQBACK, the next
MQBEGIN of the other application fails with 2128.
IY50439 - An FDC file is created with probe CO052000, claiming to have
received invalid data. This is seen when the sending end
violates the TSH protocol. A new FDC (probe CO000044) is
created to directly report the protocol violation and to
dump the received data.
IY50795 - An MQ application takes a long time to do its processing
and the transaction monitor software assumes the
transaction has timed out. The queue manager fails to
complete the xa_rollback call it receives from the
transaction monitor and program amqzlaa0 creates FDC files
with probe IDs of XC304020 from xlsDestroyMutex and
XY398007 from xcsFreeMemBlock.
IY51152 - An FDC file with probe RM409000 from rriWaitSecondary is
followed by XC130003 from rriSendThread2 from the same
process (runmqchi), causing the channel initiator to die.
This stops all channels running as threads in runmqchi,
and stops channels from restarting, and the channel state
stays as RETRYING.
IY51386 - JMS pubsub keeps sending messages to queue after
MQRC_Q_FULL, RC2053, is returned. Messages are put to the
dead letter queue, until it reaches its maximum queue
depth.
IY51907 - Checkpointing for users with large queues of persistent
messages takes along time and locks out other operations.
RUNMQSC is not able to execute.
IY51992 - When creating a queue manager using the application group
option, for example
crtmqm -g groupname qmgrname
the permissions are not created properly for
/var/mqm/qmgrs/<qmgrname>/zsocketapp.
The zsocketapp directory is being created with
universal access (drwxrwxrwx) which is incorrect.
IY52011 - Channels create an FDC file with a 'channel in use'
message.
IY52065 - Linking the XA switch load file with DB2 version 8 will
fail because the xaswit.mak file only contains linker
details for DB2 version 7 and earlier.
IY52182 - Channel name is missing from message AMQ9514 when
displayed by runmqsc.
IY52344 - amqiclen -p <qmgr-prefix> does not work; it fails to find
mqs.ini. Create a queue manager with MQSPREFIX set so that
the queue manager data is in a separate directory, for
example:
# export MQSPREFIX=/var/mqm/QMGRDIR
# crtmqm NEWQMGR
amqiclen -c -m NEWQMGR -v -p QMGRDIR</b> gives the error
message:
Unable to get subpool lock. mqs.ini does not exist.
IY52444 - If the queue manager name passed to amqiclen contains a
.(dot), for example MY.QMGR, amqiclen does not produce any
output.
IY52569 - dis q(*) and dis ql(*) runmqsc commands hang unexpectedly
while a large queue is being loaded.
IY52572 - runmqsc is connected to a remote qmgr and the DIS QS
command is issued with a wild card specified in the queue
name. After the end of the list, runmqsc always displays
AMQ8416: MQSC timed out waiting for a response from the
command server.
IY52575 - Improvements to amqiclen utility:
1. SEM: -1 -1 is output if the semaphore set associated
with the queue manager QMGR directory is not found.
2. Add -h flag to print headings in the amqiclen output.
3. Add -t flag to work with the -x flag to remove the
trace control SEM and SHM IPC resources associated with
/var/mqm/errors.
4. Add the description of the errno (strerror) to error
output.
IY52676 - SIGSEGV in zfu_as_SearchPrincipalList, while authenticating
the user ID passed from the client.
IY52951 - When strmqcsv is started repeatedly without stopping after
approximately 8182 times the strmqcsv command creates an
FDC file (probe-id XC307010 from xlsRequestMutex). Also
with each restart of strmqcsv (after 8182 times) strmqcsv
returns with AMQ8101 error code.
IY53065 - An FDC file (Probe ID:ZL043050) is generated with a
segmentation violation(SIGSEGV). The customer uses group
messages. This problem is generated only when the
receiving process is completed without getting a part of
the messages.
IY53173 - Improve parameters traced on API exits.
IY53481 - Return value from rcrmqobj is incorrectly set to 71
(Unexpected error) when -z option is used.
IY53665 - JMS: Listener Port fails to automatically recover after a
broken connection is detected. The problem occurs after
errors:
JMSExceptionL E WMSG0018E: Error on JMSConnection for MDB
<MDB name> , JMSDestination <jms destination> :
javax.jms.JMSException: MQJMS2002: failed to get message
from MQ queue
at com.ibm.mq.jms.services.ConfigEnvironment.
newException( ConfigEnvironment.java:540).....

at com.ibm.mq.jms.MQSession.consume(MQSession.java:2420)
at com.ibm.mq.jms.MQSession.run(MQSession.java:999
IY53668 - High CPU use in a threaded MCA process, for example:
amqrmppa, runmqlsr, or runmqchi, when a channel runs an
exit which creates a thread which persists after the exit
is called for MQXR_TERM.
IY53700 - Clustering: There is an alias queue defined on QMGR_A whose
target queue (targq) is a queue on QMGR_B. The queue on
QMGR_B is a CLUSTER queue. The alias queue on QMGR_A is
not in the cluster. When putting a message to the alias
queue, the message goes to the Dead Letter Queue with a
reason of 2082 0x00000822 MQRC_UNKNOWN_ALIAS_BASE_Q.
IY53907 - Clustering: During MQSET a user who has all permissions for
the cluster queue, but does not have a put permissions to
the SYSTEM.CLUSTER.COMMAND.QUEUE. The agent fails with a
2035 error and creates an FDC file with probe KN204020 from
function KqiDoPendingChangeCLQ.
IY53917 - Sender or server channels went into STOPPED state after
migrating from WMQ 5.2 to WMQ 5.3 (see also SE14601)
IY53953 - JMS: When a JMS Client application experiences an error
delivering a message, it will invoke an Exception
Listener if one has been registered. If the Listener
attempts to close the existing connection by calling the
close() method on an instance of the MQQueueConnection
class, the Exception Listener will hang.
IY54013 - JMS: The customer finds that a message fails to be
delivered and the trace shows following information.
ServerSession W WMSG0031E:Exception processing JMS
Message for
MDB <MDB Name>, JMSDestination <jms destination> :

IY54015 - Run runmqsc commands by 'cat file | runmqsc QM'. If the
input file includes a DEF CHL or ALTER CHL command, runmqsc
exits after this command. No command following the CHL
command is run.
IY54269 - JMS: A durable subscriber is abnormally terminated (using a
kill -9 or ctrl c). When the application attempts to
reconnect the durable subscriber they receive the error
message MQRCCF_SUBSCRIPTION_LOCKED.
IC41691 - CURDEPTH value does not reset after restart of queue
manager.
78539 - no symbolic link in /usr/lib for /opt/mqm/lib/libmqz.so
78677 JMS: Unable to set the FIQ field to true in MQQCF.

I) Fix Pack CSD06 (PTF U489865)
----------------------------

This is the fifth fix pack for IBM WebSphere MQ for Sun Solaris
Version 5.3 from IBM. It is delivered via PTF U489865 for APAR
IY41983.

Number of APARs in fix pack = 41.

It contains fixes for all the problems listed below:

IC36779 - Cumulative maintenance #05 (fix pack CSD06) for WebSphere MQ for Windows V5.3
IY46790 - Cumulative maintenance #05 (fix pack CSD06) for WebSphere MQ for AIX V5.3
IY46791 - Cumulative maintenance #05 (fix pack CSD06) for WebSphere MQ for HP-UX V5.3
IY46801 - Cumulative maintenance #04 (fix pack CSD06) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for Intel V5.3

IY46799 - Cumulative maintenance #05 (fix pack CSD06) for WebSphere MQ for Solaris V5.3

IC36223 - JMS/Java An exception occurred using MQJMS JMSStreamMessage
class java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException at
java.lang.System.arraycopy(Native Method) at
com.ibm.jms.JMSStreamMessage.readBytes(JMSStreamMessage.java:
416)
IC36938 - JMS: A client doing a batched MQGET for a message of
more than 32767 bytes can generate an FDC file on the
server with probe CO007001 coming from component ccxSend
and a return code of rrcE_BAD_PARAMETER, with Comment1
showing Length. On the JMS client side, the symptom may be
that, simply, anything over 32k of the message appears
incorrect.
IC37456 - AMQ8077 Shows a blank object name when INQ is not
authorized.
IC37515 - Messages remain on the SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.QUEUE for
ever if the queue is removed from a cluster and then added
into a cluster while an application is putting messages to
the queue.
IC37592 - When using the amqoamd utility to dump all authority
information with a -n option, no error message or output is
received for objects whose name is exactly 48 characters
long.
IC37728 - After migrating from MQSeries v5.2 to WebSphere MQ V5.3, an
auto defined cluster sender channel fails to start
reporting error AMQ9519. This indicates that the channel
was not found.
IC38247 - If a user who is not in the mqm group attempts to run a
command, runmqlsr for example, an access violation error is
created.
IC39048 - JMS client applications will cease processing messages for
no apparent reason. Message consumers will never receive
messages despite messages being available. No exceptions
are thrown.
IC39888 - JMS: If an MQQueue is bound into JNDI and then looked up
and cast to a javax.jms.Queue, creating a QueueSender with
this object throws an InvalidDestinationException.
IY46567 - Failure of a database (under transaction control by MQ in
global units of work) when ThreadOfControl is set to
PROCESS can result in MQCMIT calls rolling back the whole
transaction and giving a reason code of MQRC_BACKED_OUT.
Transaction integrity is not compromised.
IY46627 - An FDC file with PROBE ID XY019001 from XUFOPENINIEDIT can
be created with message AMQ8501 with a return code of
545261579 (LRCE_Q_MGR_NOT_AVAILABLE).
IY43721 runmqsc hangs.
IY47486 - runmqsc or amqpcsea hang accessing cluster objects.
IY47595 - JMS: V5.3 is unable to use a empty message selector.
results in javax.jms.InvalidSelectorException: MQJMS0004:
JMS Client has given JMS Provider a message selector with
invalid syntax.
In MQSeries V5.2 / MA88, the JMS client was able to have an
empty message selector.
IY47735 - Process amqzllp0 received SIGSEGV caused by a queue having
buffers with non-zero write counts on buffers that are
NULL.
IY47780 - During migration or reinstallation of MQ the directory
permissions of existing queue manager directories
under /var/mqm/qmgrs are modified to 2775.
Many of these directories are created by MQ with different
permissions.
IY47946 - Scratchpad errors after upgrade from 5.2 to 5.3.
Trace shows rrxWriteSync rc=rrcE_RESOLVE_SCRATCHPAD_FAILED
Only occurs if IY45615 (in fix pack 5) has not been
applied.
IY47968 - JMS: non-durable subscriptions created by the application
may not be removed or durable subscriptions are still
marked as in-use. This can lead to a buildup of messages
or of dynamic queues, as well as MQJMS3023 exceptions (
Subscription has an active TopicSubscriber ).
IY48070 - Customer writes groups of messages to a queue. Later, if
they try to get a message from this queue, they will
receive reason code 2033 (0x000007f1 NO MSG AVAILABLE
MQRC_NO_MSG_AVAILABLE). When this problem occurs, if the
customer restarts their queue manager, then the same
application is able to get the message successfully.
IY48097 - JMS: pubsub applications may encounter problems if they
connect to MQ using a TopicConnectionFactory (TCF) that
does not specify a queue manager name.
IY48122 - JMS: When a pubsub application loses its connection to the
queue manager, eg. by receiving a linked MQException of
2009 (MQRC_CONNECTION_BROKEN), 2161 (MQRC_Q_MGR_QUIESCING),
2162 (MQRC_Q_MGR_STOPPING) and others, MQ may leave threads
hanging in the function SessionAsyncHelper.run().
IY48319 - If the reply message from the command server cannot be put
to the reply queue passed in the PCF command, the command
server fails to put the reply message to the DLQ with an
MQPUT1 failure of 2141 MQRC_DLH_ERROR.
IY48505 - When a message contains a LineFeed (New Line) character (x
15) within the data, MQ is incorrectly converting the x 15
character into x 25 . This data conversion is occurring
before the data is passed to the channel Message Receive
Exit.
IY49061 - Memory leak under agent process when many dynamic queues
are opened using MQOPEN .. MQCLOSE inside a single MQCONN
and MQDISC.
IY49117 - Clustering: an application may be able to put messages to a
cluster queue even if the PUT(INHIBITED) attribute is set.
IY49122 - Memory leak in runmqlsr may lead to the queue manager
hanging.
IY49267 - When using MQPUT1 from a client application to put to a
distribution list when the MQOD.Version is set to
MQOD_VERSION_2, the call fails with 2136
MQRC_MULTIPLE_REASONS (2085, 2086). It works if the
Version is set to MQOD_CURRENT_VERSION (3).
IY49278 - When an application puts multiple messages to a queue and
they are segmented by the queue manager, it is possible
that the program which gets the messages may receive a
reason code of MQRC_TRUNCATED_MSG_FAILED if its buffer is
not large enough to contain the largest messages on the
queue.
IY49648 - FDC file with probe ID is created XY180010 when using
MQCONNX with connection options MQCNO_HANDLE_SHARE_BLOCK
and MQCNO_HANDLE_SHARE_NO_BLOCK.
IY49686 - If a multithreaded C++ client application attempts to
connect to a Queue Manager which is unreachable the MQCONN
waits while the client attempts to connect to the Queue
Manager. During this time all other MQI calls are unable
to complete and hang as they are waiting on the MQCONN to
return. This meant potentially other threads would also
hang until the MQCONN returned.
IY49687 - Message for error AMQ7217 has blank fields.
IY49983 - Process amqrmppa creates an FDC file with probe ID of
CO400001, component unknown, and major errorcode
RRCE_BAD_PARAMETER.
IY50128 - FDC file is created if SIGHUP sent to a process running
runmqsc.
IY50188 - Clustering: sender channels fail to start automatically
when messages arrive on the SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.QUEUE.
These channels remain in INACTIVE state after disconnecting
normally due to reaching DISCINT.
IY50439 - FFST with probe CO052000 is dumped, claiming to have
received invalid data. In fact, the invalid data is a copy
of part of data just received.
IY60708 - JMS: Calling the createSender() method on an instance of
the MQQueueSession class results in the following exception
being generated:

javax.jms.InvalidDestinationException:
MQJMS0003: Destination not understood or no longer valid.
at com.ibm.mq.jms.MQQueueSession.
createSender(MQQueueSession.java:199)
at com.ibm.ejs.jms.
JMSQueueSenderHandle(JMSQueueSenderHandle.java:86)
at com.ibm.ejs.jms.JMSQueueSessionHandle.
createSender(JMSQueueSessionHandle.java:229)
75204 - If a queue manager has a name which is a subset of
another queue manager name, and if both of these have the
same database as an resource manager, then the first queue
manager can attempt to resolve indoubt transactions
belonging to other queue manager.
76130 - SSL: Channels may fail if their certificates contain
'RFC822Name' information.
76301 - zh_TW.EUC behaves as Simplified Chinese instead of
Traditional Chinese.
76370 - runmqsc with no parameters does not show default queue
manager name.
77458 - Java: java.lang.UnknownError sent to an application if
the queue manager is ended while the application is
in a sleep.
78237 - SSL: Key certificates are not creating with 'CMS' datatype.
Please see CSD06 "Special Information" section above for
more information and "Upgrading and Downgrading the GSKit"
for instructions on how to install a version of GSKit which
fixes this problem.

MQRC_CLUSTER_PUT_INHIBITED.
IC35527 - MQGET of last group msg returns MQRC_INCONSISTENT_UOW if
the previous get is backed out.
IC35749 - Clustering: where the queue is set to BIND_NOT_FIXED and if
a remote queue is set up so that the remote queue manager
name is a queue manager alias shared in the cluster, the
queue manager name is not filled in on the cluster transmit
queue, causing the message to be put to the DLQ on the
queue manager which hosts the alias.

work for Sybase V12.
IY39002 - strmqm may print this message even if setmqcap has been
run: "Purchased processor allowance not set (use

AllQueueManagers stanza is changed in the mqs.ini file or
the Windows registry. The queue manager will continue to
start and run normally despite this message.
IY40450 - FDCs with probe id KN065001 out of kqiAuthorityChecks with
a minor error code of arcE_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND are created
when using their own OAM authorization service and have a
multi-threaded application.

K) Fix Pack CSD04 (PTF U486877)
----------------------------

This is the third fix pack for IBM WebSphere MQ for Sun Solaris
Version 5.3 from IBM. It is delivered via PTF U486877 for APAR
IY38744.

Number of APARs in fix pack = 37.

It contains fixes for all the problems listed below:

IC35383 - Cumulative maintenance #03 (fix pack CSD04) for WebSphere MQ for Windows V5.3
IY38742 - Cumulative maintenance #03 (fix pack CSD04) for WebSphere MQ for AIX V5.3
IY38743 - Cumulative maintenance #03 (fix pack CSD04) for WebSphere MQ for HP-UX V5.3
IY38747 - Cumulative maintenance #02 (fix pack CSD04) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for Intel V5.3
IY38762 - Cumulative maintenance #02 (fix pack CSD04) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for zSeries V5.3
IY38744 - Cumulative maintenance #03 (fix pack CSD04) for WebSphere MQ for Solaris V5.3

IC35483 - When importing a self-signed certificate created using
selfcert.exe (part of Microsoft Office), on Microsoft
Windows XP, using either the GUI or amqmcert, WebSphere
MQ V5.3 trapped.
IC35648 - Using WebSphere MQ for Windows V5.3 MMC Services GUI in
DCOM (remote) mode resulted in a trap.
IC35684 - API post-get exit returned an incorrect data length.
IC35711 - A damaged queue object occurred following a "clear ql"
for an unloaded queue. If on restart the queue file
was not recovered from the logs, then when it was
loaded an FDC with probe id AQ123002 from component
aqqLoadMsgHdr, followed by an FDC with probe id
AQ060020 from component aqhLoadMsgChain, occurred. The
reason code is arcE_OBJECT_DAMAGED.
IC35786 - An FDC with probe id AS023000 occurred in component
adiDeleteFile when using rcrmqobj with a damaged
object.
IY38042 - When processing a DUOW, the first thread waited up to
120 seconds for the second thread to end, and then if
it did not end in that amount of time, it terminated
the second thread. This has now been increased to a
300 second delay before terminating the second thread.
IY38428 - The MQSeries queue manager removes stale IPC resources
on startup. Each MQSeries IPC resource has an
associated file in the /var/mqm/qmgrs/QMGR/ area, and
the queue manager searches that area for old files, and
removes them and any associated IPC resource. But that
algorithm overlooked the fact that the resource may
have been removed and reused by another queue manager
due to an IPC key clash. So it may have removed
current IPC resources now owned by another queue
manager, not stale ones.
IY38476 - A COBOL client application compiled for use with
WebSphere MQ V5.3 failed with SIGSEGV.
IY38893 - An FDC with probe id CO000002 occurred after a TCP/IP
transmission problem which caused more bytes to be
transmitted than expected for a given message.
IY39949 - The setting of environment variable AMQ_SIGCHLD_SIGACTION
is not recognised.
IY40050 - An MQSeries channel event message was not generated
after error message AMQ9545 (disconnect interval
expired).
IY40432 - Under certain circumstances, WebSphere MQ could write
an FDC showing probe id AQ066030 from component
aqhAllocateSpace. The major errorcode was STOP_ALL, so
this error would terminate the queue manager. The
function stack showed that this error happened while
loading a queue into memory as part of MQOPEN
processing.
IY40722 - When channels were started by runmqsc, the channel
processes became defunct when the channel stopped.
IY41184 - When importing a certificate into a Queue Manager
store, error message AMQ9630 ("an expired SSL
certificate was loaded") occurred when using either the
Explorer GUI or amqmcert.
IY42021 - The runmqchl process became defunct when a channel
stopped if that channel had been started by the command
server.
IY42894 - WebSphere MQ V5.3 was changed to handle SIGABRT
differently from the way that MQSeries V5.2 handled
SIGABRT, when abort() used to dump a core file and
abort the process. But in WebSphere MQ V5.3, this was
changed to create an FDC and end the process. After
reviewing this with Development, the following changes
will be made to the current behavior in WebSphere MQ
V5.3:
1. Do not handle SIGABRT received through an user
application. As a result of this change,
abort() called through an application results
in a core dump and no longer it generates an
FDC.
2. Do not handle SIGABRT when
MQS_ACTION_ON_EXCEPTION is set to ABORT or
ABORT_ALL.
IY43097 - Occasionally a failure with return code 2102
(MQRC_RESOURCE_PROBLEM) occurred when trying to connect
applications to WebSphere MQ V5.3. When a large number
of applications attempted to perform a get operation
with large buffer sizes, the shared memory set was
extended, but with incorrect permissions. This meant
that applications run under a user id which did not
have mqm as its primary group could not connect to this
extent, getting EACCESS from shmat. This was returned
as a resource problem.
IY43106 - An FDC with probe id XY242001 was produced from
component xcsGetpwnam. This FDC was introduced by APAR
IY36461. The intention of the APAR was to create the
FDC if the routine failed because the system had run
out of file descriptors. The result has been rather
different; any failure to find a userID also caused the
FDC to be created. Such a failure, that a userID does
not exist, is not an WebSphere MQ error so it would not
be correct to write such a message to the WebSphere MQ
error logs, so this FDC has been removed.
IY43215 - On Turbolinux 8, setmqcap, dspmqcap, crtmqm, strmqtrc
and endmqtrc all hung. They appeared to function
correctly but ps -ef showed two threads that did not
end. Trace showed that the asynchronous signal monitor
thread never returned from a sigwait. SIGWINCH was
correctly raised against it and diagnostics showed that
it was correctly blocked on that thread. The problem
was due to the default sigaction on Turbolinux being
different from other flavours of Linux. The correct
sigaction had to be set prior to the sigwait in the
asynchronous signal monitor.
IY43610 - A number of libraries, including the C++ bindings and
SNA libraries, were not shipped with fix pack CSD03.
The symptoms which may have been seen prior to
application of this interim fix included:
-> Segmentation violation in WebSphere MQ
-> Abnormal termination of WebSphere MQ applications
using the C++ interface
-> Diagnostics (e.g. FDCs) not being produced
-> Abnormal trace content
IY43940 - An object corruption problem occurred following the
reloading of a queue which was unloaded due to
inactivity. FDCs occurring as a result of this problem
included AQ060020 from component aqhLoadMsgChain and
AQ066000 from component aqqReadMsg.
IY43961 - A triggered Java application hung when instantiating a
new queue manager object.
IY44601 - Using runmqsc to display information about channels
resulted in an FDC showing probe id PC031012 from
component pcmInquireChannel. Trace history in the FDC
showed return code xecS_E_MEM_SET_NOT_FOUND repeated
several times over and error message AMQ9224
('unexpected token detected') also appeared in the
error logs reporting an unexpected token in the qm.ini
file.
IY44618 - WebSphere MQ V5.3 hung after executing endmqm -i whilst
the queue manager was quiescing.
IY44803 - Two problems were found during the final stages of
WebSphere Application Server V5.0.1 Enterprise Edition
testing:
a) Whilst running a Process Choreographer
application, an except was written to the
SystemOut logfile.
b) Whilst running a stress test of the
compensation function, core and thread dump
file were generated. No messages were logged
into SystemOut logfile but messages were
written to the SystemErr logfile.
IY45013 - WebSphere MQ V5.3 JMS hung due to build issues with
libmqjbnd05.so and libmqjbndF02.so.
IY45091 - If, in an HACMP cluster, a queue manager was failed
over to another machine which also hosted another queue
manager, then when the failed over queue manager was
started, it was not possible to start channels to that
instance of the queue manager. The channels failed
with error messages AMQ9502 and AMQ9547.
SA95740 - The queue manager terminated abnormally when a
checkpoint process encountered a ghost queue that it
could not find.
SA96031 - If a full repositories entry in a partial repositories
cache had the awaitsRepos flag on, then it would not be
selected as a possible full repository to which to
publish its cluster specific messages. AwaitsRepos can
get set if there has incorrectly been a manual cluster
sender defined from the full repository to the partial
repository. The change ensures that we correctly
publish messages to the full repository regardless of
the AwaitsRepos flag.
SA96071 - Following the fix for APAR IY27208, the calculation of
the oldest LSN is incorrect. In some cases the oldest
LSN calculation will include ghost queues that are no
longer required. In the vast majority of cases the
likely damage will be limited to reporting an
unnecessarily low media recovery LSN at restart.
However occasionally it is possible that this could
cause us to report too high a media recovery LSN which
could cause data integrity problems following a
restart.
SE09741 - Damage occurred to a queue file when a clear queue was
issued against a queue which had not yet been loaded.
When the queue file did finally get loaded (not
recovered from the logs), FDCs with probe ids AQ123002
from component aqqLoadMsgHdr and AQ060020 from
component aqhLoadMsgChain occurred.

71806 - Fixed IVTRun -ccsid option.
73240 - When attempting to use get with convert from legacy
applications, problems occurred on the messages
produced, such that nulls were left where there should
have been blank characters.
73772 - When reading messages in codepage 1051 some
applications could have failed with index array out of
bounds.

L) Fix Pack CSD03 (PTF U485560)
----------------------------

This is the second fix pack for IBM WebSphere MQ for Sun Solaris
Version 5.3 from IBM. It is delivered via PTF U485560 for APAR
IY36149.

Number of APARs in fix pack = 44.

It contains fixes for all the problems listed below:

IC34802 - Cumulative maintenance #02 (fix pack CSD03) for WebSphere MQ for Windows V5.3
IY36147 - Cumulative maintenance #02 (fix pack CSD03) for WebSphere MQ for AIX V5.3
IY36151 - Cumulative maintenance #02 (fix pack CSD03) for WebSphere MQ for HP-UX V5.3
IY36157 - Cumulative maintenance #01 (fix pack CSD03) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for Intel V5.3
IY36620 - Cumulative maintenance #01 (fix pack CSD03) for WebSphere MQ for Linux for zSeries V5.3
IY36149 - Cumulative maintenance #02 (fix pack CSD03) for WebSphere MQ for Solaris V5.3

IC34272 - Under some circumstances, the QName field in the MQWXP
(cluster workload exit parameter) structure was not set.
This field should be set so that cluster workload exits
can route messages properly.
IC34714 - After doing a browse MQGET, if the MsgId or CorrelId is
set, or the MatchOptions MQMO_MATCH_CORREL_ID or
MQMO_MATCH_MSG_ID are set, the next MQGET with
MQGMO_BROWSE_MSG_UNDER_CURSOR or MQGMO_MSG_UNDER_CURSOR
(ie. non-destructive or destructive get) does not
retrieve the browsed message.
IC34717 - Multiple problems occurred with large concentration of
channels into a single Queue Manager running on the
Windows 2000 platform.
IC34739 - Problems occurred with amqmcert on Windows NT and
problems occurred when viewing certificates in the GUI
on Windows NT.
IC34774 - Following an exception in MQDISC processing subsequent
WebSphere MQ functions (eg. MQDISC or MQCONN) hang.
IC34854 - A trap occurred when browsing a queue in the MMC
Explorer snapin.
IC34874 - An FDC was generated with probe id XY315147 on the
WebSphere MQ server during system shutdown because a
remote application was continuing to PUT messages to a
queue manager residing on the server machine. The FDC
was seen after a restart of the server machine.
IC34883 - An error occurred while opening the SUBSCRIBER queue
while performing a subscriber close.
IC34910 - An FDC with probe id XY051024 occurred from component
InitPrivateServices. This FDC is intended to
demonstrate that there are 2 copies of AMQXCS2.DLL in
the system, but in this case the 2 copies of the dll
reported had the same path - the difference in the 2
paths was that one was uppercase and the other was
lowercase.
IC34948 - Cluster sender channel did not start automatically.
IC34985 - If after defining a queue manager, a listener was
defined, deleted and recreated then at this point
nothing was written to the registry so a reboot lost
that listener. This also applied to any child service
(eg. channel initiators or trigger monitors).
IC35037 - Problem in the bindings code that prevented the MQPMR
from being updated once the messages had been sent
using a application java program that put a message to
a distribution list. When the program ran in bindings
mode, the message ids that were returned were null. If
the program was changed to run in client mode, the
message ids were returned correctly. In both scenarios,
the message ids were valid on the queues.
IC35040 - A JMS publish/subscribe subscriber application
failed with error message:
javax.jms.JMSException: MQJMS2002: failed to get
message from MQ queue with
the linked exception
com.ibm.mq.MQException: Completion Code 2, Reason
2003 (MQRC_BACKED_OUT)
IC35047 - The command dmpmqaut showed authorities that were valid
for a queue manager (ObjectType = qmgr) when displayed
for a queue (ObjectType = queue).
IC35050 - When using an RFH2 Header with MQMD.MsgFlags set to
MQMF_SEGMENTATION_ALLOWED with a message length that
was greater than the maximum message length, then an
error occurred with Reason Code 2195 (unexpected
error).
IC35116 - An MQCONN failed with return code 2059 and an FDC with
probe id XY441008 occurred in the Shared Memory server.
IC35136 - The error MQRC_BUFFER_ERROR was reported incorrectly
for an MQAI COM application (ie. a VB application using
the classes in the amqzaix COM library) that used the
'item' method to query the value of a string.
IC35272 - If a message larger than MAXMSGL was put to a cluster
queue with MD.MsgFlags set to MQMF_SEGMENTATION_ALLOWED
the message was not segmented on the
SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMIT.QUEUE. The result was that the
message was not gettable from the cluster xmitq and the
channel continually failed with
MQRC_TRUNCATED_MSG_FAILED returned from MQGET.
IC35369 - Error message AMQ8343 or any error message with a
higher error number gave the wrong text in German,
Brazilian-Portuguese and Traditional Chinese.
IC35395 - When reading the Service stanza, it was assumed that
SecurityPolicy was the last entry. This was not the
case if there was also a NameService stanza, in which
case the SecurityPolicy was set correctly when the line
was found, and reset to default when the line was not
found under the NameService stanza.
IY31882 - MQSeries queue open information could have been
corrupted by processes that opened the same queue at
the same time.
IY32730 - The component xcsExecProgram did not trace the path to
the failed executable to help determine the cause of an
'access denied' message being generated.
IY34135 - Improve trace information reported for the rcdmqimg
command to help determine which objects are preventing
media log advancement.
IY34300 - Queue manager failed to start and error message AMQ5525
was produced. The error message was accompanied by
FDCs with probe ids ZI095207 and ZF095010.
IY35557 - An application connected to WebSphere MQ, then at some
point all its threads disconnected. This caused
WebSphere MQ to uninitialise tracing for that process.
Later, multiple threads from that application connected
at the same time. WebSphere MQ needed to re-initialise
tracing for the process, but there was a small timing
window which allowed multiple threads into the
initialisation code, and that tripped the WebSphere MQ
consistency check and the resulting FDC with probe id
XY078004.
IY35756 - An error with reason code 2195 (unexpected error)
occurred from an xa_prepare in component
tmiPerformPrepare.
IY35870 - The CPI-C call cmrcv() failed with a SIGSEGV on HP-UX
V11.
IY36085 - If an MQI application running over an SVRCONN channel
stacked in MQGET with MQWI_UNLIMITED, endmqm -i hung up
and never stopped.
IY36461 - When the number of File Descriptors was running short
for a user, generating both informational FDCs and
error logs was not possible. If the errors were to be
logged in error logs, it would be necessary to open the
message catalog file and the error log file for which
there are insufficient File Descriptors. To avoid this
problem error logs will no longer will written in this
situation.
IY36853 - An FDC with probe ID ZF047010 occurred and an
xcsGetGrent call ended with 9 during a crtmqm command.
This resulted in the crtmqm command aborting but
leaving a partially running Queue Manager with no
default objects created.
IY37338 - An FDC with probe id AT048005 occurred in component
amqzlaa0 from routine atxCommit. The return code was
arcE_XAER_PROTO.
IY37545 - When WebSphere MQ encountered an error loading a module
or resolving a symbol name within a loaded module, it
queried the operating system for error text to help
resolve the problem. In some cases, this text may have
been lost or overlayed with new and possibly unrelated
error information.
IY37611 - An LDAP userid was truncated when used to bind to the
server for CRL processing.
IY37765 - The WebSphere MQ Using Java manual (SC34-6066-00)
refers to a Makefile for use with JTA/JDBC coordination
via WebSphere MQ base Java (see chapter 7). The
Makefile was omitted from WebSphere MQ for AIX V5.3 and
WebSphere for Sun Solaris V5.3.
IY38407 - Error messages AMQ6188 and AMQ7622 occurred when trying to
start the Queue Manager.
IY39991 - After a JMS application received a message from a
queue, it attempted to send that message to two other
queues. On the second put, the start of the message
data was found to be missing.
IY40211 - The listener process terminated abnormally, accompanied
by an FDC with a probe id of CO052000 and error message
AMQ9207.
SA95932 - A queue lock was not released before releasing a data
mutex and this resulted in a deadlock condition that
caused MQSeries to hang.

60225 - Provide support for the WebSphere MQ Extended
Transactional Clients.
66682 - MQS_ACTION_ON_EXCEPTION was ineffective for XA
exceptions.
67200 - An FDC with probe id XY078004 occurred from component
xtrReleaseTraceLock.
67470m - Unicode Topic names are now supported in WebSphere MQ
JMS.
70015 - SSL channels did not work on Windows NT.
70180 - Windows XP (SP0) system supplied certificate resulted
in a channel failure as a result of a user error.
70294 - QREMOTE with RNAME=QREMOTE name got stuck on the XMITQ.
70527 - REFRESH CLUSTER command did not accept "*" as a
parameter.
70594 - Client connection failed after the SSL channel failed
to start because the assigned certificate had no
private key.
70595 - Client did not check the date validity of an SSL
certificate.
70684 - Logfilepages could not be set to more than 9999.
70703 - If an application was terminated while it was
allocating or freeing a memory block in the shared
memory heap, then the queue manager could have been
halted.
70804 - Platform differences between the SSL state attribute
caused certificate search failures.
70872 - An FDC with probe id ZF154006 occurred in component
wasSecServiceInit from program amqzlaa0.
71189 - After a queue with size in excess of 2GB was filled
with persistent messages, the queue manager was stopped
and restarted. When the application that was putting
messages to this queue was restarted, at the MQOPEN the
queue was truncated to 2GB in size and the MQOPEN
failed with reason code 2101 (MQRC_OBJECT_DAMAGED).
71218 - Failed to find mqm as secondary group.
71230 - Problems occurred with the cluster creation GUI.
71510 - Memory leaks occurred in the MSCS resource monitor
process.
71569 - If certain criteria occurred, inquire queue status did
not always return a correct queue depth.
72076.1 - FDCs and exceptions from zcpDetachPipe following Agent
Dead FDCs.
72217 - Resolves issues where Channel Terminated messages were
being issued when a heavily stressed system has
thousands of channels starting and stopping
simultaneously.
72223 - 100% CPU loop in amqrrmfa in a rare timing condition
when the registration chain is updated by two processes
simultaneously.
72307 - Problem where amqrmppa channel pooling processes
were not tracked correctly, resulting in a significant
number being launched unnecessarily over time on a
system where thousands of channels start and stop
frequently.
72500 - Resolves problems with wrapping trace including hang
during wrapping point and incorrect filenames on the
Windows platform only.
72562 - An FDC with probe id RM220005 occurred in component
rrmRepository from program amqrrmfa.

61153 - JMSAdmin - Test for InitialContextFactory on classpath.
A common problem has been the inability of Java to find
the InitialContextFactory class, as specified in the
INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY property, in the classpath.
The effect of the fix for this defect is to report
"Class specified by INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY not found
in CLASSPATH".
64266 - Improve JMSAdmin error reporting JMSAdmin -v :
specifying the -v option for JMSAdmin will enable
verbose output on commands including exception
reporting.
67166 - NoClassDefFoundException without jta.jar. MQ base Java
required jta.jar on the CLASSPATH at runtime, for
example running the MQIVP without jta.jar available
fails with a NoClassDefFoundException on XAException.
68116 - Unable to change TopicConnectionFactory TRANSPORT
property DIRECT to BIND value. Switching a Topic
Connection Factory or Queue Connection Factories
TRANSPORT value in JMSAdmin can cause the PORT value to
change :
From To PORT value
BIND CLIENT Set to 1414 (the default value)
BIND DIRECT Set to 1506 (the default value)
CLIENT DIRECT Unchanged (remains at the default
value for CLIENT transport 1414, or
whatever the user has set)
CLIENT BIND The Port Property will be removed
as not valid with transport BIND
DIRECT CLIENT Unchanged (remains at the default
value for DIRECT transport 1506, or
whatever the user has set)
DIRECT BIND The Port Property will be removed
as not valid with transport BIND
68275 - Minor performance improvement to getMessage. Reduces
the amount of browsing needed for message selection
over the MQI.
68382 - Inconsistent identified producer behavior. An
identified producer (i.e. one tied to a specific
destination at creation time) in a Point-to-Point model
is unable to send to a specified queue, using
QueueSender.send(queue, message). In this situation, a
JMSException is thrown, stating that such an attempt is
an invalid operation for an identified producer.
However when using the Publish/Subscribe model, using a
publisher which has been tied to a topic at creation
time, succeeds. This is has been corrected with
reference to the JMS 1.0.2b Javadoc for QueueSender and
TopicPublisher, where in both cases it should actually
throw java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException.
68422 - Improve SessionAsyncHelper error handling.
68741 - Transactions not working with selectors. Messages are
being got outside syncpoint for transacted and XA
sessions when the QueueReceiver is using a message
selector. As a result, rolling back the transaction
does not backout the message.
68762 - iSeries Storage leak on MQGET - NO_MSG_AVAILABLE. MQGET
does not ReleaseByteArrayElements when MQ returns
MQRC_NO_MSG_AVAILABLE. This causes the heap space to be
consumed and threads to drop when 4MB is used.
68775 - Linux native library not statically link with
/lib/libgcc_s.so.1. Linux native library was built with
a dependency on /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 rather than
statically linked. This may cause problems on systems
where this library is not available.
68780 - Rationalize syncpoint usage on ConnectionConsumer
receive. When using ConnectionConsumer, non-persistent
messages are now received out of syncpoint if the
Session is non-transacted and AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE or
DUPS_OK_ACKNOWLEDGE. This brings ConnectionConsumer
into line with the behavior of asynchronous delivery.
This behavior can be altered through the
SyncpointAllGets property of the ConnectionFactory
(from JMSAdmin, this is the SPAG property). If this
property is set to true (ie. SPAG(YES)) all receives
are performed in syncpoint. Additionally,
ConnectionConsumer no longer performs an unnecessary
backout at the end of receipt of a batch messages, if
the gets were committed.
68905 - get() fails with maxmsgsize of zero. In the 'base' MQ
classes for Java API, it was not possible to call
MQQueue.get() specifying a zero-length buffer. This is
now fixed; the call will complete successfully if the
message received has no body or with an appropriate
MQRC_TRUNCATED_MSG response if the message has any body
data.
68938 - Fail if Quiesce values for ConnectionFactory and
Destination properties cause unexpected returns. The
exact behavior of the Fail If Quiesce property when a
queue manager is quiescing was significantly dependent
upon the timing of the calls (for example
sending/publishing, and creating a receiver/subscriber)
in relation to the closing of the queue manager. Under
certain conditions with the ConnectionFactory property
set to YES and Destination property set to NO, a
JMSException would be thrown when the operation would
be expected to succeed. This JMSException contained a
linked MQException with error codes of 2161
(MQRC_Q_MGR_QUIESCING) or 2033 (MQRC_NO_MSG_AVAILABLE).
This behavior has now been corrected in all feasible
scenarios, however a 2033 may still occur if the
pub/sub broker has been stopped before it processed the
publish operation.
69623 - Incorrect message lookup in BrokerSubEng. Broker
response is set to MQPS_COMP_CODE rather than
MQPS_REASON_TEXT.
70052 - NullPointerException from durable subscribe and
unsubscribe. If the queue manager is quiescing while
subscribing to durable subscription now fails with
NoBrokerResponseException, and the durable unsubscribe
fails with another NoBrokerResponseException, with
linked MQRC 2033.
70365 - JMS postcard "nickname" can be truncated. Users may
previously have entered a nickname of any length in the
graphical user interface, which was silently truncated
to 18 characters. It is now impossible to enter a
nickname longer than the allowed length of 18
characters.
70378 - Unable to parse RFH2 containing <../> empty element
form. When reading a message containing a <usr> folder
element of the form <name/>, the parse failed. Such
messages were not generated by JMS, but could be
created by other applications (eg. MQ Integrator,
third-party apps). This is now fixed.
70409 - Bad exception if no CertStore class available. An SSL
client application which checks against CRLs on a
non-1.4 JVM without the CertStore class, then the JVM
will throw a ClassDefNotFound exception rather than an
MQException.
70413 - get-wait poorly handled in Subscriber. The wait
timeout is not reduced in MQTopicSubscriber.getMessage
when processing non-matching msgs. This can result in a
lock-in where getMessage will never return because a
stream of non-matching msgs are arriving.
70463 - Exception while closing the sub with SUBSTORE(MIGRATE).
NullPointerException while closing a durable
subscription using SUBSTORE(MIGRATE), when the
subscription has previously been created using
SUBSTORE(QUEUE); i.e. when the subscription had been
migrated during createDurableSubscription(). Later uses
of the durable subscription were unaffected.
70694 - JMS WebSphere Sample 3 improved compatibility. The JMS
WebSphere Sample3 (jmsSample3.jar) is now compatible
with the WAS 4.0 and WAS 5.0 ejbdeploy and assembly
tools.
70862 - Messages not cleared when updating durable
subscription. Old messages not cleared when updating
durable subscription while using
BrokerSubscriptionEngine.
70969: BrokerSubscriptionEngine cannot open
durableSubscription on non-shared queue
71007 - Open handles left against durable subscriber queue.
Queue handles could be left open against the subscriber
queue following a create and close of a durable
subscription using SUBSTORE(QUEUE).
71036 - Timestamp based selector fails. When using
MessageSelection=BROKER, selectors which use
JMSDeliveryMode, JMSPriority, JMSTimestamp or
JMSXGroupSeq, will result in no message being delivered
even when the selector should evaluate to true.
71038 - Null pointer exception when using setString(null) on
MapMessage with trace enabled
71069 - PSIVT fails with EBCDIC broker (MQSSR problem). The
PSIVT fails when using an EBCDIC pub/sub broker with
BVER(V1). IVT fails reporting a bad message received
with "JMS_IBM_Format:MQSSR" instead of "MQSTR".
71084 - Get matching by correlid does not work for Linux
bindings. Attempting to get a message, by specifying a
correlation ID fails when using the Linux bindings. The
symptom of the failure is that the get operation
succeeds but does not perform the matching and instead
returns the first message found.
71102 - StringIndexOutOfBoundsException and mangled NLS
messages. Under heavy load, MQException objects could
contain mangled messages; occasionally this would
result in StringIndexOutOfBoundsExceptions.
71131 - MQTopic incomplete equals and hashcode methods. Not
all of the parameters on MQTopic were included in the
hashcode and equals methods.
71137 - ConnectionConsumer Performance enhancements.
71145 - SUBSTORE(QUEUE) cleanup, BVER(V2), ignores wildcards
subscribers. SUBSTORE(QUEUE)-style cleanup ignores
BVER(V2) subscribers which use wildcards in the topic
name.
71159 - Ignore MsgSelection for IP Transport. When using
Transport=DIRECT the setting of the MsgSelection
parameter on the TopicConnectionFactory should be
ignored as message selection is always done by the
Broker in this case. Previously, attempting to set
MessageSelection=BROKER when Transport=DIRECT caused an
exception to be thrown erroneously 71166: Add new error
message for UserName too long UserNames longer than 12
characters are not supported when using
Transport=CLIENT or BIND.
71167 - Pacing of publish() requests to Broker. Erroneous 'No
Broker Response" exceptions reported when publishing
using multiple Publishers on one Session with a heavily
loaded Broker.
71233 - Performance: improve MQMessage.read* methods. When
reading many small data elements from an MQMessage, the
majority of the overhead is in calls to setMode() and
trace statements that are not dependent on a
conditional test 'if (Trace.isOn)'. A tidyup of the
trace and changing the calls to setMode() to execute
conditionally solves the problem.
71318 - Thread leak with broken connections. The thread
created for a bindings connection is normally removed
during the disconnect call. If the disconnect fails the
thread is not removed, and for customers writing their
own fail-over/reconnect logic this causes a build up of
unwanted threads.
71405 - Durable sub fails with multiple Queue approach.
Recreating durable subscription after JVM Crash throws
javax.jms.JMSException: MQJMS3022 when multiple Queue
Approach is used.
71433 - Cannot restart queue manager, ConnectionConsumer
holding connections. The JMS code did not properly
disconnect non-XA Sessions created from an XAConnection
object. This caused problems from ConnectionConsumer,
which may have given rise to just this problem. The
problems related to restarting the queue manager after
a failure; without being properly disconnected the
queue manager could not restart until the WebSphere
Application Server process was stopped.
71439 - Cannot send deserialized messages. If a message object
gets serialized and later deserialized, attempting to
send the deserialized version gives an 'internal error'
JMS Exception.
71568 - Missing file /java/lib/jdbc/Makefile.jdbc. Used for
building switch file jdbcxxx had been omitted from the
AIX and Solaris installation packages. This is now
fixed.
71696 - TemporaryTopic error conditions should throw
InvalidDestination. A JMSException is thrown in the
following circumstances:
1. TemporaryTopic used in createSubscriber against
the wrong Connection
2. Deleted TemporaryTopic used in createSubscriber
3. TemporaryTopic used with
createDurableSubscription behavior changed to
throw InvalidDestinationException as required by
the JMS specification.

M) Fix Pack CSD01 (PTF U484025)
----------------------------

This is the first fix pack for IBM WebSphere MQ for Sun Solaris
Version 5.3 from IBM. It is delivered via PTF U484025 for APAR
IY32729.

Number of APARs in fix pack = 52.

It contains fixes for all the problems listed below:

IY32621 - Cumulative maintenance #01 (fix pack CSD01) for WebSphere MQ for Windows V5.3
IY32727 - Cumulative maintenance #01 (fix pack CSD01) for WebSphere MQ for AIX V5.3
IY32728 - Cumulative maintenance #01 (fix pack CSD01) for WebSphere MQ for HP-UX V5.3
IY32729 - Cumulative maintenance #01 (fix pack CSD01) for WebSphere MQ for Solaris V5.3

IC33707 - Service startup may not have waited for all queue
managers to start. The process is estimated to start
in 45 seconds but when there are many queue managers,
this time may be considerably longer. But the 45
second estimate was not changed and this resulted in
some of the queue managers being stopped and error
message AMQ7880 was written to the log.
IC33838 - When using the just in time activation of objects
within COM+, the application program worked for a while
but then hung because an MQGet was being executed
before the commit of the previous transaction had been
issued. The point at which it hung was the getcontext
within the MQGet.
IC34042 - When a CLUSSDR channel to a full repository went
inactive due to a DISCINT expiring and was then stopped
by using the Stop Channel command) then if a cluster
queue was defined on the queue manager, the channel to
the full repository (which was in STOPPED state) went
into RUNNING state automatically.
IC34123 - The queue manager restarted automatically when it was
stopped manually through the services panel.
IC34193 - An access violation occurred in the amqzlaa0 process
when different security was setup on the receiver
channel. An FDC with probeid XC130031 from component
xehExceptionHandler.
IC34208 - The AlternateUserId was not being used to open a queue
manager object when calling Connect from an ActiveX/COM
application.
IC34235 - When using remote administration from machine A, signed
on with a local id on that machine, to another machine
B on which the same userid existed but had limited
authority (not in mqm group), then an attempt to view the
queue manager properties resulted in a trap in the
command server, which when running as a service appeared
to be hung.
IC34362 - Using a revoked certificate when CRL settings were
defined so that verification via an LDAP server should
occur, the channel started successfully whereas it
should have failed because the certificate was
revoked.
IC34382 - Multiple copies of listener and trigger monitor
occurred following a reboot of the machine, where the
queue manager start up process included the trigger
monitor, listener and channel initiator.
IC34383 - Error message AMQ4082 "Unexpected WebSphere MQ error
(3015)" occurred when the "apply on channels" option
was chosen on a V5.3 MMC Explorer connected to a V5.2
queue manager.
IC34402 - Using SSLPEER to check one or more attributes (RDNs) in
a DN obtained from a certificate failed when an exact
match was required on what turned out to be the last
RDN in the DN, but it worked if wildcard was specified
at the end of the full RDN.
IC34442 - When using the *name for a Queue manager name, ActiveX
did not return the actual queue manager name to which
the user was connected.
IC34551 - If the JMS client retrieved a message greater in size
than 2K then the message data was retrieved incorrectly
if the message data was not accessed prior to another
MQGET occurring.
IC34583 - MQPMR fields were not filled in during an MQPUT1 call
on MQSeries V5.2 or an MQPUT call on WebSphere MQ V5.3.
IC34586 - A handle leak occurred on each MQCONN/MQDISC when they
were done in a separate thread.
IC34855 - The length of a channel name insert was incorrect in
some error messages.
IC35242 - Error message AMQ5615 occurred when trying to issue
CRTMQM commands after installing fix pack CSD05 on
MQSeries for Windows NT and Windows 2000 V5.2.1.
IY31724 - When an application calls MQBACK at the end of a
two-phase unit of work, MQSeries must invoke the xa_end
and xa_rollback methods of all associated resource
managers. If a resource manager returned one of the
XA_RB* (ie. rollback) return codes to xa_end, it was
allowed to return XAER_NOTA to xa_rollback. Because
this option was not reflected in the XA state tables,
WebSphere MQ would return error MQRC_UNEXPECTED_ERROR
(return code 2195) from MQBACK and write an FDC with
probe id TM05000 from component tmiRollbackTransaction
with major error code trcE_UNEXPECTED_RM_ERROR.
IY31891 - Additional trace points have been added for WebSphere
MQ for AIX V5.3 so that any errno value set by a call
to system() can be displayed in the trace.
IY32787 - On a newly created V5.3 queue manager, a PCF Inquire
Channel command to inquire the status of all Svrconn
channels returned incorrect values for the
SSLCipherSpec key (MQCACH_SSL_CIPHER_SPEC).
IY32885 - The Solaris catgets problem (problem id 417950)
resulted in WebSphere MQ failing to print an error
message from the message catalogue in the normal
fashion when the print string in the catalogue is badly
formatted. Instead of the required message, error
message AMQ8101 was received when running RUNMQSC.
IY32890 - After migrating from MQSeries V5.2 to WebSphere MQ
V5.3, the V5.2 queue manager would not restart
successfully. An FDC with probe id AQ066030 from
component aqhAllocateSpace was produced.
IY32925 - When WebSphere MQ ran out of file descriptors, an FDC
was created with probe id XY017001 from component
xufOpenIniRead. However, it did not report the error
number properly. It was likely to be reported as 0.
IY33049 - The listener in WebSphere MQ V5.3 did not use the
SO_REUSEADDR socket option.
IY33171 - After applying the fix for APAR IY32890 and migrating
from MQSeries V5.2 to WebSphere MQ V5.3, the V5.2 queue
manager would restart successfully but a warning FDC
with probe id AQ065010 from component aqhLocateSpace
was produced.
IY33246 - An FDC with probe id XC287002 from component
xstAllocateMemBlock with minor error code
SEM_OWNER_DIED occurred when an application died while
holding a lock to the queue manager.
IY33346 - A problem occurred in component zlaMain where the
application dead count was not reset properly when a
connection was reused. This caused frequent FDCs to be
generated with probe id ZL000028 out of component
zlaMain.
IY33612 - Uninitialised shared memory data caused a WebSphere MQ
agent thread to believe that it has been told that the
queue manager was stopping. This caused the thread to
terminate the connection with the application. In order
for the uninitialised data to cause this, it had to
have exactly the right 32-bit value.
IY33836 - After migrating from MQSeries V5.1 to WebSphere MQ
V5.3, the V5.1 queue manager failed to start, producing
FDCs with probe id ZD007030 from component zdmMQCONN
and a Major Error code MQRC_ENVIRONMENT_ERROR. This
also produced error message AMQ6090 (WebSphere MQ was
unable to display an error message 7DC).
IY33837 - After migrating from MQSeries V5.1 to WebSphere MQ
V5.3, the V5.1 queue manager would not restart. Error
message AMQ6118 occurred and an FDC with probe id
HL081015 (AIX) or HL081916 (other platforms) from
component mqlpgolf in program amqzxma0 was produced.
IY33871 - While WebSphere MQ was waiting for work to complete, an
endmqm -i was issued. The endmqm process in turn
invoked the shutdown function zxcForceStopLQM which
then tried to shutdown the OAM but failed with error
code MQRC_CONNECTION_BROKEN (return code 000007D9)
because the OAM had already been stopped.
Unfortunately, the function zxcForceStopLQM treated
this as a bad return code and skipped the shutdown
procedure.
IY34165 - Messages were being got outside syncpoint for
transacted and XA sessions when the QueueReceiver was
using a message selector. As a result, rolling back
the transaction did not backout the message.
IY34432 - The expiry time on some messages was reduced by the
time that has elapsed since the messages were first
put. This occurred when rcdmqimg was executed or the
queue manager was stopped and restarted. This resulted
in some messages being deleted unexpectedly.
IY34454 - The commands setmqaut and dspmqaut incorrectly failed
with error message AMQ7085 (Type Q not found).
IY34652 - The listener failed after the number of file
descriptors had exceeded the limit of 252.
IY34717 - Ping for non-existent channel caused the command server
to SEGV.
IY34818 - If the asynchronous signal monitor was attempting to
initialize common services in order to create an FDC
while main thread was in the process of bringing common
services down, then this resulted in a cascade of locks
being backed up which then resulted in a hang
condition.
IY34825 - An FDC with probe id XC130003 occurred in component
xehExceptionHandler from program runmqchl_nd.
IY34865 - When a JMS application issued QUEUEBROWSER.CLOSE(), the
queue handle was not being released.
IY36465 - AMQRMPPA processes were left running after endmqm had
finished processing.
IY36487 - When an exception handler was set for SIGABRT, the saved
signal handler for SIGSEGV was overwritten. If the
handlers were not identical then SIGSEGV was not
percolated correctly.
IY37431 - If there was only one cluster queue and it was set to
be put disabled, then the expected return code 2268
(MQRC_PUT_INHIBITED) was not returned when putting from
a remote queue manager with bind-not-fixed specified.
However the message was "put" successfully and ended up
on the local SYSTEM.CLUSTER.TRANSMISSION.QUEUE.
PQ65576 - The repository manager on a Solaris or HP-UX queue
manager running in a cluster containing WebSphere MQ
V5.3 queue managers failed. When the queue manager was
restarted, it failed again. The repository manager
failed due to a badly formatted message on the
SYSTEM.CLUSTER.COMMAND.QUEUE. On queue manager restart
the repository manager tried to process this message
again, hence the repeated failure.
PQ65725 - On migration from an older release of MQSeries where
clustering was used, on channel initiator startup the
repository manager terminated abnormally due to an
unusually formatted message segment on the
SYSTEM.CLUSTER.REPOSITORY.QUEUE. The abend would also
be seen on channel initiator restart as the message
would be re-processed.
PQ66006 - Partial repository queue managers no longer
acknowledged all instances of a cluster queue some time
after a REFRESH (or ALTER QMGR to change the clusters
to which queue manager was the full repository) was
carried out on a full repository queue manager.
SA95280 - Following an MQPUT, with the put message option
MQPMO_NEW_MSG_ID specified, that used distribution
lists, then the Msgid field of the MQPMR structure was
expected to be populated with a unique message
identifier but it was not.
SA95694 - When putting a message to a distribution list and a
unique message identifier was specified, the specified
unique message identifier was ignored and a queue
manager generated message identifier was given to the
message.
