Hi All,
I was trying to format the Inquire QStatus PCF Command in Java in order to collect info on the new Monitoring fields (ex: Last_Get_Date & Time). I received an error basically saying those fields were unknown. after speaking with IBM, I was told that they have not added these fields to any .Jar files at this time.
Has anyone successfully formatted this command in order to collect these new fields? If so, how did you accomplish this?
Thanks,
Bill |

Write to the author of MS0B and ask when this will be updated for v6. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |

Hi Bill,
Did you install MQ Explorer v6?
-> MQ Explorer is an Eclipse plugin.
-> Plugins are written in Java
Did you look in the Eclipse plugin directory? <MQ_Install_Path>\eclipse\plugins
I've installed CSD01, so I have 2 sets of PCF & Event directories:
- com.ibm.mq.pcf.event_6.0.0
- com.ibm.mq.pcf.event_6.0.1.0
- com.ibm.mq.pcf_6.0.0
- com.ibm.mq.pcf_6.0.1.0
I would think these jar files would be exactly what you are looking for.

Hey Roger,
Thanks for your help. Yes, we had Websphere MQ 6.0.1 installed and we were using com.ibm.mq.pcf. You were right, the new fields were in those jars you mentioned, so we removed the existing jar and added the 6.0.1. Things work fine now. It seems odd that I posed this question to IBM and they said the new fields had not been added to the jars yet. Or, maybe it's not odd.
Anyway, thanks for your help!
Bill |

The use of these jars is undocumented and pretty much unsupported. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |

Hi Bill,
I agree. As a vendor of MQ products, I find it VERY odd. It has been a year since the release of WMQ v6.0 but still no new official documentation for the new PCF jars.
I know IBM is busy but the documentation has to be done because the IBM MQ Explorer group used it to create the new MQ Explorer!!!
I wonder if they have only been giving it out to the big-boy vendors? Or did they only give it to their Tivoli group?? Hence, this would give the Tivoli products a shot in the arm. This smells like a Microsoft move. (I hope I'm wrong given IBM's open source movement for several years now.)
Just my 2 cents.
Regards,
Roger Lacroix

My understanding is that these jars are only updated for use by the MQ Explorer and are not productized in any way. _________________ I am *not* the model of the modern major general. |
