Dear all,


I´ve develop an Web application that lists queue names and queue properties using C# and ASP.NET and its working fine with queue managers on Windows and AIX.
When trying to list ques hosted on mainframe environment i got and error 2033 (no message).
There is any special configuratio to access mainframe?

I only now that i have to convert messages from EBCDIC to ASCII when getting mainframe messages.
To do this i´m using the INQUIRE featrure with PCF messages.


thanks in advance

What version of MQ is your z/OS queue manager? If it's not version 6, then you can't use PCF messages.

z/OS v5.3 takes plain MQSC commands as input to the command server, not PCF messages.

Just a simple question.

This MQSC commands should work on other platforms? If no I´ll have to "duplicate" with pcf messages to work on windows and linux.

Please don't reinvent the wheel.

If you need a tool to manage your MQ network, then there is business value that comes from having your MQ network under good management.

That business value should fully justify the cost of some kind of MQ management tool. If nothing else, it should justify the cost of implementing one of the two or three free-but-unsupported tools out there.

I understatd your point. Don´t get mad.

I´m developed a tool that works fine on other platforms. The problem is that I´m completely new to z/OS, and at the moment (honestly) i´m little lost with the diferences bettewen them.

I just don´t care about my "dum questions" I´m just trying to understant de diferences between the platforms to adapt my tool.

I am not mad (it was a question icon), nor was the question dumb,
I just wondered how you passed the test not knowing about z/OS / or wether MQSC as the same on other platforms.

that's all,... good luck on your tool.

It´s worked ! ! !


The biggest problem before was my poor english(Sorry about that).
In the question before I was trying to ask if I can send plain text with mqsc commands to SYSTEM.ADMIN.COMMAND.QUEUE on Windows platform as we do in z/OS using SYSTEM.COMMAND.INPUT.

The reason is bebause i´m trying to simulate z/OS because i just have z/os on production, not even one for testing applications and don´t gonna test on z/OS on production.

I´ve done the test at night when nobody is usin MQ on z/OS and its work fine.

Michael you missunderstand me and its were my fault. (no problem man)

Thank you all for your help
