APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
You use runmqsc to define a subscription with a number of selectors in WebSphere MQ 7.5.0.6. However, the output of dmpmqcfg shows fewer selectors than was originally defined. . To check, compare the SELECTOR field returned on the DISPLAY SUB command in runmqsc with the dmpmqcfg output.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** USERS AFFECTED: Users of long string values that contain single quotes on queue managers which use a non-default CCSID may be affected by this problem. Platforms affected: MultiPlatform **************************************************************** PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WebSphere MQ will ensure that single quotes are doubled when displaying them. This is done so that the command output uses the correct syntax such that it can be used as input to runmqsc. See the rules for MQSC strings here http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSFKSJ_7.5.0/com.ibm. mq.adm.doc/q020630_.htm "...If the string itself contains a quotation mark, the quotation mark is represented by two single quotation marks..." Processing strings in this manner increases the string length. If the command processor needs to convert the string, for example if the queue manager CCSID is changed, then a different code path is taken. This conversion code path copied the string to a buffer which used the length of the original string rather than the length of the processed string and so the output was truncated.
Problem conclusion
The WebSphere MQ code has been corrected so that the conversion logic uses the processed string length rather than the original string length. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v7.5 7.5.0.8 v8.0 8.0.0.6 v9.0 CD 9.0.1 v9.0 LTS 9.0.0.1 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from 'WebSphere MQ Recommended Fixes' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006037 If the maintenance level is not yet available information on its planned availability can be found in 'WebSphere MQ Planned Maintenance Release Dates' http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=171&uid=swg27006309 ---------------------------------------------------------------
