Hello,
I had a problem recently where a rogue application (JMS/MDB) went into a loop and grabbed all the available SVRCONN connections.
I give a different SVRCONN channel to every application so it was easy to see the culprit.
This impacted all the other applications using the QMGR as the max number of channels had been reached.

My question is the following (and I'm pretty sure that the response will be "no"):
Is there any way of limiting the number of SVRCONN channels that can be created by a specific channel name. That is to say, if I have an application using the SVRCONN channel MY.SVRCONN.CHL, then is there any way of specifying that a maximum of 50 channels of this name can be active?
If there is a way then it would prevent a looping application from taking all the available SVRCONN connections and thus from impacting other QMGR users.

Thanks for any advise or suggestions.

There is a MAXCONN exit which you can implement on the queue manager which I think will do what you want.

Have a look at http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=203&uid=swg24004771&loc=en_US&cs=utf-8&lang=en

That seems to be exactly what I am looking for.
I'll download it immediately and start playing with it.
Thanks a million for your help.

For an officially supported, better performing solution with a lot more options, check out the MQAUSX Security Exit Solution from Capitalware. We use it for that exact purpose.

I've investigated Capitalware's solutions and have requested a trial of MQSSX for the extra fucntionalities (login verification and ip blocking) it provides on top of my immediate requirement to limit SVRCONN connections. Great price for such functionality.
Thanks for the heads up on this solution.
