Is it possible to determine what the current sequence number should be for a MQ channel on both the AIX and S/390.
Sometimes UNIX adminstration flip servers around and the channels get out of sync (Don't ask why they do this, but they do). When they do this the S/390 is out of sync with the UNIX side. Trying to be proactive, how would I determine the current sequence number? |

Why on earth are the sys admins doing that? Anyway, I hope you aren't asking whether you can programmatically determine this. Because I don't think there is a way. Were you planning on having an application on each server query his queue manager, determine the sequence number, open a socket to his buddy and figure out which sequence number is right? _________________ Brandon Duncan

Well if the the channel is in retry state (SDR), the "dis chs(CHANNEL_NAME) all" will give the last seq. _________________ Jeff

No, we're not trying to do this programatically, just trying to determine the sequence number before they flip them around. Thought we could reset the sequence number ahead of time so that we would have one less thing to do.
From the sound of it there doesn't look to be a way of doing this.
Thanks for your replies. |

Using MQSeries Explorer on Windows, you can get the sequence number (current and last) by clicking on the channel you would like to check. It will display the channel status (See Properties - Saved status). |
