hello,
I am a biginner in MQSeries. I was just going through some questions posted in this section and then I saw something on FDC. I trace the path i.e. var/mqm/errors but didn't find any such directory at the place where i have installed IBM WMQ V5.3. May anybody please explain me about that.

What platform are you using?
If its unix you should have a /var/mqm/errors directory.
You might not have any *.FDC file in it (yet).

This directory is where MQ first failure data is written. On releases before 6.0 on Windows, MQ also writes trace files to the 'errors' directory.
As long as your system is working you don't need to look in that directory. Generally if something appears in there it is helpful for debugging a deep problem - eg. file system problems, network problems, or possibly MQ internal problems.
There's some documentation at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wmqv6/v6r0/topic/com.ibm.mq.amqzag.doc/mxprobl.htm |

Thank you for the link. I am working on Wndows XP. Iwant to know that what is the difference between an FDC(under unix) and the error file under the directory IBM\WebSphere MQ\Qmgrs\(qm name)\errors.

there is no unix / windows difference.
both systems will write fdc data if a failure occurs, and both systems
use the amqerr*.log files to write messages about mqseries activities. these also include informational messages like channel start and so on (not only errors).
the directory structure is different (program files/ibm websphere/ ... on windows and var/mqm/ on unix), but that is all.
