Hi All,
Quick question about the mirrorq exit written by Charlie Lindsey... does anyone know if it will copy messages that are put to the input queue via binding mode rather than a client connection? We were interested in doing some performance testing on mirrorq; throughput, memory usage, etc, so I wrote a little bash script to pile on the messages w/ mqput2 (from the ih03 supportpac). The messages make it to the input queue perfectly but mirrorq doesn't make a copy whereas it copies perfectly if I put a test message w/ MQExplorer or any other client. This is w/ the mirrorq code that was on IBM's site as of this morning btw.
My apologies if this has been answered before, but I scoured the site and couldn't find anything close...

For all those who are interested, using the included mqputs utility rather than mqput2 will put messages that get copied via mirrorq. This is enough for my testing, but the core issue remains... will mirrorq do anything for you if you are putting messages via binding mode rather than a client connection???
This may just be my lack of knowledge regarding exits, but do they even fire when interacting w/ a queue manager in binding mode?? |

Well, an API exit should fire for every MQ API call.

That's what I thought too, which is why I'm so confused  |

That doesn't mean the exit will respond to that firing.
It's possible that mirrorq has some filters for internal programs, so it doesn't interfere with certain things. And it's possible that the mqput2 program matches one of those filters.
I suspect that the mirrorq author will be along shortly to clear up the confusion.

Yes, it works for both bindings and client mode. However you are seeing a bug that occurs when the target queue is not always opened with the same open options as the source queue. MQPUT2 exposes this bug.
I have a fix for this. You can PM me with your email address if you would like to get the updated code.

Charlie hasn't maintained mirrorq for several years.
And probably won't see this message at all. |

| What is the status of mirrorq? Who is supporting it? An older 2004 version of mirrorq software is currently on the Capitalware website. A 2006 version was also available somewhere. |

The status of mirrorq is exactly the same as it has always been.
Completely unsupported sample code. |
