Hello all -

Attempting to archive linear logs, I ran rcdmqimg -M <QMGR> -t all *, but it seemed to have no effect. The event messages before and after running rcdmqimg give me the same file name as the oldest log needed for media recovery. I have used this before, and in every case it has updated to a more recent log file, until now, that is.

What could be preventing the image from recording to a newer file?

We're facing the same issue - wondered if you may have gotten any off-line responses to your question. For the past month, the lat log file needed for media recovery has not changed. We run rcdmqimg several times a day and have recycled the queue manager several times.

Thanks,
John

How many messages are put on local queues on your queue manager? If the number is low, compared with the size of log files, you might not see any change for quite a long time.

In some circumstances the rcdmqimg command does seem to get locked. I diagnostic E-Fix is available from IBM which will collect data that they can then analyse...

Without IBMs support the only way I've been able to get around this is to be-build the queue manager...

Thanks all for your responses. We probably have about 50K messages per day going in and out of the queue manager. The logs definitely grow rapidly - hence our problem. Since we archive only the logs not needed for media recovery and this log file isn't changing, our disk space is filling up (we currently have 15 gig allocated).

I think we'll probably change our archiving to archive logs not need for queue manager restart. That should solve the immediate problem. We may open a call to see if IBM support can help us figure out why this all started.

Thanks
John

Is it possible, taking into account your applications, that there are long-lasting, uncommitted transactions? If so, queue manager would indeed need quite old logs to be able to eventually commit or rollback such transactions.
