Is anyone aware of any utility that could decipher a CCDT file?
I couldn't find one anywhere (google, books...)

(say to me, stop it with the CCDT already)

Try searching google for 'ccdt+supportpac'

Hold on a second; I'll be right over to type this into the google search textbox for you: ccdt+supportpac

2nd on the list of 1600 results is a reference to supportpac MO72. Try searching for MO72.

By 'no luck' do you mean that you received zero results?

Just create a new queue manager, and replace it's existing CCDT file with yours.

Then runmqsc will decipher it for you.

No supportPac required.

M072 does not decipher CCDTs.

@mqjeff

could you explain?

I mean exactly what I said.

Create a new queue manager, start it.

This creates a new CCDT file - AMQCLCHL.TAB in @ipcc.

Stop the queue manager. Delete the existing AMQCLCHL.TAB file. Move your CCDT into the same place with the same name.

Start the queue manager.

runmqsc
DIS CHL(*) type(CLNTCONN).

I thought the method you indicated here and which I'm still interested in hearing about avoided CCDT?

As with many WMQ objects, it's better to store the scripts that create them than try to reverse engineer them from the deployed version.

I'll try that.

@vitor

I want a utility that can decipher CCDTs

As for the method, I'll put in the FAQ section, so everybody can read it.

Thanks

I got that . I just thought I'd point out a potentially better alternative.

If I post on a DIY forum "what's the best paint to use in my basement because the damp makes it peel" then in addition to suggestions regarding high density latex paints, I'd also enjoy suggestions on preventing water seepage.

But that's just me.

We've also had a number of instances where we've been asked about performing certain tasks where it's transpired after a few posts that it's not really the task that's the point.

Are you saying MO72 cannot read an existing CCDT and generate the MQSC - I would bet it can.

The latest version will read & display as well as create CCDT entries, and this @ multiple versions... However you need to set the correct environment variables to point to the CCDT... and the documentation of the support pack...

Also note that the file has a binary format. If you ftp'd it using ascii it is corrupted and you need the original....

@Vetor

I aint going to reverse engineer it or something, just want to see what it reads after the auth information is written to it
(what SSLCRLNameList... is going to write to CCDT)

@fjb_saper, @zpat

I'll try that

Thanks!

As already mentioned, the two easiest methods of viewing a CCDT are:
1) SupportPac MO72
2) Setting MQCHLLIB & MQCHLTAB to point to the CCDT, start qmgr & then runmqsc "display channel(*) type(clntonn) all". An alternative is to copy the CCDT over the qmgrs @ipcc/AMQCLCHL.TAB file.

Setting the qmgr attribute SSLCRLNameList will not change anything in a CCDT because it is not a CLNTCONN channel attribute. The CCDT is merely a linked list of MQCD structures.

Infocenter says

If you define a namelist (In MQ) containing authentication information objects, and set the queue manager attribute SSLCRLNameList to the name of the namelist, the attributes of the authentication information objects are copied to the CCDT.
