Hi,

I have a WMB V6.1 broker on AIX. Well, lots of them!
The lpar was recycled and there were some filesystem issues (and fsck fixes) done by the AIX guys.

I have been unable to restart 1 broker (all others fine). Getting MQ and DB2 errors.

So I get the following from an mqsireportproperties on the Broker.
Note the missing qmgr and Broker DB info (DB name, user, password)

$ mqsireportbroker ILMS1BA1
BIP8926I: Broker Name 'ILMS1BA1'
Install path = '/usr/IBM/mqsi/6.1'
Work path = '/var/mqsi'
Broker UUID = '0398dbec-3501-0000-0080-de944cdaef42'
Process id = '24314252'
Service userId = 'ilms1sv1'
Service password = '********'
Queue Manager = ''
User Name Server Queue Manager = ''
Broker database name = ''
Broker database userId = ''
Broker database password = '********'
User lil path = ''
User lil path64 = ''
User exit path = ''
User exit path64 = ''
Active user exits = ''
LDAP principal = ''
LDAP credentials = ''
ICU converter path = ''
HTTP listener port = '7076'
Pubsub migration = 'false'
Pubsub access control = 'false'
Trusted (fastpath) Queue Manager application = 'false'
Configuration change timeout = '3600' seconds
Internal configuration timeout = '3600' seconds
Statistics major interval = '60' minutes
Operation mode = 'enterprise'
Fixpack capability level = '' (effective level '6.1.0.2')
Broker registry format = 'v6.1'

The service password was gone too, but I could add that with mqsichangebroker.

Is there any way to add these values back in? Or is the only way to delete/recreate the broker?

Thanks,
Ross.

PMR Time.

However, you do have all the scripts you used to create said broker all nicely stored away in some Source control System don't you?
Then you can re-create the passwords.

Every time you reinvent the wheel the more square it gets (anon). If in doubt think and investigate before you ask silly questions.

It's a test broker, so can scrub it if needs be.
Yes, I can recreate at will. Would prefer not to though!
Thanks.

Restore /var/mqsi from last good system backup.
If you don't want to touch other brokers on the box go by component for the restore.

Make sure the qmgr is there. Verify. If need be look at / restore /var/mqm/mqs.ini and corresponding /var/mqm/qmgrs/<qmname> and /var/mqm/log/<qmname>. Note that with multi-instance qmgrs you need to look at dspmqinf to know where the file systems are.

Have fun
