I have 2 different Q Managers on 2 Sun Solaris boxes.When i send a Message which is basically a XML, the :(colon) character is getting converted to _(underscore)at the destination .
Is there any way this can be handled. |

Either don't specify MQGMO_CONVERT on the message get (or stop the sender channel doing the convert if it's set to) or adjust the queue managers' CCSID to match. I'm guessing that the two boxes use broadly similar code pages? Another option would be to change the format of the message to MQFMT_NONE.
What CCSID's are in use on the two queue managers and is there an existing design rational for the choice? Normally a queue manager defaults to the code page of the hosting machine IIRC.

Take this problem to your MQ Administrator.
Ask them to help you.
Don't set the format to MQFMT_NONE.

I would have thought DISPLAY QMGR CCSID would be an obvious place to start... 
The format of the message is controlled (again somewhat obviously) by the Format field of the message descriptor.
This might assist with additional information:

| The CCSID for one of machine is 819 and the other CCSID is 1208. Does this makes any difference. |

819 is standard for Unix machine. 1208 is UTF-8 character set.
The question I have is are you setting the client's CCSID when pulling off messages and do you do a get with convert?
Enjoy

No, i do did not set the client's CCSID when getting the message and i do not do a convert with get.
Also is there any way that i can change the CCSID of the other server to 819. |
