I am upgrading to mq v8 from v7.5. we are following multi install
technique and installing mq at a location other than /opt/mqm. When we
run our script to install rpm's , 3 rpm's install fine and then
installation hangs.
What we observed is that there are multiple mqconfig process running
when It's hung.

I did a rpm -qp on mqserver rom which is where I think the hang is happening,, and that's the one that has the post script to run mqconfig.

Anyone have any ideas.

We are on rhel 6.7

It is probably worth looking to see if any of the mqconfig instances have written any output. At install the mqconfig log is redirected to /tmp/mqconfig.pid.log

It did write the output to the /tmp file. WHat doesnt happen is, if you remember , it will redirect a warning or message about mqconfig usage during rpm installation. That doesn't happen. I enabled -vv option for verbose mode during installation and see the installation halts at the step executing mqconfig.

Here are the last few lines of the output of the rpm install using -vv option

Code:
+ chown -fh mqm /opt/mqm80_Inst1/lib64/libXML4CMessages.so
+ chgrp -fh mqm /opt/mqm80_Inst1/lib64/libXML4CMessages.so
+ INSTALLROOT=/opt/mqm80_Inst1
++ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=
++ /opt/mqm80_Inst1/bin/setmqinst -r -p /opt/mqm80_Inst1
+ setmqinst_out=
+ rc=0
+ '[' 0 -ne 0 ']'
+ echo
+ '[' -x /opt/mqm80_Inst1/bin/mqconfig ']'
+ MQCONFIG_LOGFILE=/tmp/mqconfig.469702.log
++ /opt/mqm80_Inst1/bin/dspmqver -f2 -b
++ awk -F. '{print $1 "." $2}'
+ INSTALL_VR=8.0
+ /opt/mqm80_Inst1/bin/mqconfig -v 8.0



and here is the output of the ps -ef command when the install hung.

Code:
psef mq

Update if any one have the same issue.

IBM tells, that mqconfig might be causing the issue and the options are
1. They can provide a new rom, with updated mqconfig or disable mqconfig to run during installation
2. pull 8.0.0.4 as base code and install rather than doing base and fix pack installs since this one has the new mq config.

I chose the second option and all is working well.

Edited: to be more clear

Given the problem did not occur on 8004, I think this is likely a known problem fixed after MQ 8000.

Thanks,
