Re: MQ Series

["Bob Entwistle" <bentwist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I believe we've seen a couple of things though I'm not the best person to
supply details.

We have an app sending msgs from an Oracle database to the AS400.  The
AS400 seems to reset it's integrity control message number.  E.g. Oracle is
sending msg #10056702 and that's really what the AS400 should be seeing but
somehow the communications link breaks causing the AS400 to reset to expect
msg #1.  This occurs with every upload and is circumvented only by writing
our own patch script to reset the Oracle msg # to 1.  AS400-AS400
connectivity seems OK though.

Second thing was discovered only after the upgrade but may have been a
problem before.  When using groups of over 1000+ msgs, we've had 2
occasions where the commit goes off and essentially never comes back.  In
one case, they had to basically take down the system and re-IPL to get the
job to abort.  In another, I believe they did an abnormal end (*IMMED and
*CTRL  would not work).  IBM is looking at this currently.

Is it true that there are problems with MQ Series if I upgrade from V4R1 to
V4R3 ?
Has someone experienced problems ?

Thanks in advance
