MQSeries.net :: View topic - PUT disabling a queue using Microsoft Queue COM object

I'm working with a clustered queue implemented on several machines/queue managers across a network. In a certain scenario, I need to PUT-disable invidual queues on specific machine(s). When this occurs, I need for the correct round robining of incoming messages to continue correctly amongst the remaining PUT-enabled clustered queues.

When I try this on a queue using MS Queue COM object, it will correctly PUT-disable the queue. However, at least one of the channels in the cluster is not getting notified of this change: the cluster round robining mechanism still recognizes the PUT-disabled queue as a valid destination and attempts to deliver messages.

If I examine the queue via MQExplorer at this point, the InhibitPut property is correctly configured 'True'. I noticed too that if I select the 'Refresh' option a few times on the queue, this seems to finally propogate the its new state across the cluster: round robining of messages are correctly diverted to PUT-enabled queues at that point.

Do I somehow need to execute an explicit REFRESH command of some kind? On the cluster? The Queue Manager? In the COM objects documentation, there are no .Refresh() methods listed for QM or queue objects. If this needs to be done can you do via MSBag object? Or the ADSI interface? Could someone send me a solution?? Really appreciate it. Love to any and everyone's thoughts. Thanks.
