Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  Users of Queue Manager Clusters
  Platforms affected:
  MultiPlatform
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  During the normal hour maintenance of the cluster repository
  process (amqrrmfa), the existence of internal subscription are
  checked for queue and queue manager objects in the local queue
  manager view of the cluster configuration. If a queue manager
  record is found not to have subscriptions in the appropriate
  cluster(s) it is a member of, an FDC with probe RM702021
  (Missing Subscription) should be generated.
  However, if the queue manger record had a named cluster which
  the local queue manager was not aware of (because it is not a
  full repository for the cluster, nor is it a partial repository
  either), then the generated FDC was misleading as there should
  not have been any subscriptions.
  

Problem conclusion

• The problem is fixed by an additional logic check that
  effectively removes the incorrect assumption that if the queue
  manager is not a full repository for the cluster, then it must
  be a partial repository. Removing this assumption informs the
  queue manager that it is possible that there should not be any
  subscriptions to validate.
