RE: MQ Series

["Graap, Kenneth" <keg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Guess What ????  I had a "brain fade" ... I have already solved this problem!

Utilizing several TAATOOLS I wrote a CLP called CHKQMSTS back in January. It 
does the following to determine if an MQM process is active:

CHECK TO SEE IF SUBSYSTEM QMQM IS ACTIVE                       
   IF NOT ... EXIT WITH AN ESCAPE MESSAGE                      
CHECK TO SEE IF ANY AMQZXMA0 JOBS ARE ACTIVE                   
   IF NOT ... EXIT WITH AN ESCAPE MESSAGE                      
CHECK TO SEE IF THE QUEUE MANAGER SPECIFIED IS BEING SERVICED  
BY ONE OF THE AMQZXMA0 JOBS (List all AMQZXMA0 joblogs to a DB file and then 
query it)                                   
   IF NOT ... EXIT WITH AN ESCAPE MESSAGE                     
IF THE QUEUE MANAGER SPECIFIED IS RUNNING, END NORMALLY  

The CHKQMSTS program is called by another program called DLY4MQM. If CHKQMSTS 
returns an escape message, it waits for a couple of minutes and tries again.

Sometimes I surprise myself... Ha!

No, but if i did, I would probably use QUSLJOB to list the AMQZXMA0 jobs in
QMQM, and then look at their jobs logs to determine if they reference the
queue manager I am investigating. There may be other cool ways too...
