I have an AIX QMGR running 7.0.1.8 which is connecting to another Linux
QMGR via SDR / RCVR channel. The Linux QMGR is running MQ 8.0.0.2. The
Linux QMGR is a multi instance QMGR with another host.

When I fail the QMGR from one server to the other the sdr channel from
the AIX Server shows running but the conname does not update nor does
the rcvr channel go running.

when you mentioned multi-instance did you update the conname(ip1(port),ip2(port)) properly

I think that's not easy to do in a 7.0.1.8 qmgr...

Yes I have a dual conname. Is this valid in MQ v7.0.1.8?

Can a 7.0.1.8 QMGR connect to a 8.0.0.2 QMGR via multi instance and auto matically failover or does it have to be at a higher level?

THIS is the definitive answer (and is pretty much verbatim in the MQ V8.0 KC), so your behaviour suggests that something in your network infrastructure may be an issue. Do you have any of the AdoptNewMCA* attributes set in the CHANNELS stanza of the V8.0 queue maanger qm.ini file?

on the failover instance of 8.0.0.x I expect you use chlauth?

Can you display the output of:
Code:
dis chlauth(8.0 receiver chl*) type(all) match(runcheck) address('7.0 qmgr host') qmname('7.0 qmgr name')
??

2 : dis chlauth(MQ 8 Rcvr CHannel Name) type(all)
AMQ8884: Channel authentication record not found.

And yes I have this in the qm.ini...
Channels:
AdoptNewMCACheck=ALL
AdoptNewMCATimeout=60
AdoptNewMCA=ALL
MaxChannels=250
MaxActiveChannels=250
TCP:
KeepAlive=Yes

I mean the channel runs. However on the v8 QMGR when I fail it, the sdr still says running but the conname is the old box, and the rcvr on the new failover is not running.

I can stop and then start the sdr and it goes back to running on the other node.

How are you running the listener on your version 8 qmgr?
  • as inetd daemon
  • from the os as runmqlsr -r -m qmgr -p port &
  • from the qmgr with control [qmgr]

After failover check with netstat -an | grep port # and verify that the 7.0 qmgr still does have a connection to the v 8 Linux host.

Check that on the primary right after failover and MQ v8 running on secondary...

If you still see something in status LISTEN on the mq port, this could mean that a listener process for the qmgr is still up and running...
It could be the standard one that did not die, or any of the other 2 cases.

See what happens after you kill it.

I figure you are not moving the connection to the failover because something (mqlistener?) is still listening on that port on the old (primary) V8 host...

What is the output of
Code:
ps -ef | grep mqlsr | grep -v grep
