CLWLChannelPriority (MQLONG)

This field specifies the cluster workload channel priority.

The workload manager choose algorithm selects a destination with the highest priority from the set of destinations selected based on rank. If there are two possible destination queue managers, this attribute can be used to make one queue manager failover onto the other queue manager. All the messages go to the queue manager with the highest priority until that ends, then the messages go to the queue manager with the next highest priority.

The value is in the range 0 through 9. The default is 0.

This is an input field to the exit. The field is not present if Version is less than MQCD_VERSION_8.
