I searched for posts on DLQ, runMQdlQ, ZOS, etc. and came up with useful suggestions (MA0t, RFHUTIL, etc).
But I have 8000 messages. About 7000 of them I need to trash. 1000 need to be rerouted.
Unless I'm missing something I can't run runMQdlq on ZOS and RFHUTIL is good for manual only. Any suggestions? |

Thanks Jeff, I didn't know this thing (CSQUTIL) existed. But perusing the ZOS System Admin manual under CSQUTIL I do not find any options/parameters that will do the things that I need. They have an option to empty the queue (I need to empty only 7k of the 8k messages). They have an option to load a queue from a dataset. They don't appear to have any more options.
My impossible wish list is for a client version of runMQdlq to process against the ZOS DLQ on a SVRCONN connection. (Thats not going to happen). |

One suggestion:
Unload all 8k to a dataset with CSQUTIL.
Use SyncSort / COMPAREX / IDCAMS / anything to weed out the 7k
Reload the remaining 1k of messages using CSQUTIL

Certainly not. You'll have to use CSQUDLQH (runmqdlq's z/OS brother) like the rest of us.
You'll find him described in the same manual section as CSQUTIL. IIRC he has the same facilities (and rules table) as runmqsdlq.

My zOS skills stop at the word "CSQUTIL". |

This is sufficient for 90% of all z/OS tasks.

Send the messages to a distributed queue manager and use the DLQ handler on them there.
You don't say if this is a one-off or not. But it's easy enough to move them off (CSQUTIL perhaps to a remote queue) and process them off the mainframe.
MO71 has a neat unload/load function that can remove DLH and select on various criteria.
IBM provide the (sample) source for runmqdlq so it could probably be made into a client program easily enough by re-linking it with the client libraries. |

No need... as indicated there is an equivalent to runmqdlq on the MainFrame.
Use it.

FJB-SAPER,
I am using your advice (to use the ZOS MQ utilities) and I am most grateful to you for this information. One of these days I'll get some experience on ZOS MQ and can avoid these desperate posts on mqseries.net. In the meantime, thanks a lot for your help. |

as already suggested, CSQUDLQH is your friend. See the z/OS system administration manual for details how to run it. you may need other utilities first to investigate which returncodes to dump and wich to keep / reroute / retry. MA10 ISPF utilities maybe or some kind of queue browser. see your z/Os mq administrator, he can help you, also with CSQUDLQH
