Hello guys,

I have a serious issue in my prod env.

After rebooting the server @SYSTEM folder disaperared/missing/someone deleted from the path \IBM\WebsphereMQ\qmgrs\
No sure how this happened

and now I am not able to start the QMgrs in that server.

MQ v5.3 csd13, WIN 2000 env

Below are the error logs:

AMQ7153: A license could not be installed for this copy of WebSphere MQ.

EXPLANATION:
A Production, Beta or Trial Period license could not be installed for this copy
of WebSphere MQ. This is because the 'nodelock' file in the 'qmgrs/@SYSTEM'
directory could not be created or updated.
ACTION:
Check the ownership and permissions of the 'qmgrs/@SYSTEM' directory.

AMQ7880: Error code 71 starting ABOGM01PG1/Queue Manager WebSphere MQ service.

EXPLANATION:
The service was unable to start ABOGM01PG1/Queue Manager. The error message
reported was as follows: AMQ7153: A license could not be installed for this
copy of WebSphere MQ.
ACTION:
Use WebSphere MQ Services to investigate why the service could not begin. If
recovery for this service is active, MQ will attempt to recover.

Is there any way to recover that folder or any other speed process which I can do so that business is not effected.

Thanks
John
