Since past weekend we encounter an issue with a failing channel immediatly after the connection is initiated (happens only on our PRODUCTION environment, while on TEST environment everything is running without any problems)

running MQ version 8 on iSeries
the past weekend the OS was upgraded from v7.1 to v7.3.

Since then the connection from a windows server to iSeries is no longer working (Connection to channel fails).

The following information is available from iSeries (none from the windows server).

The job AMQRMPPA indicated in red fails since the upgrade to OS v7.3.
In the first line present there, we see an error generated from serviceprogram LIBMQMR_R which is a part of the MQ package (and according to me the rootcause of the failure of the channel).
Failure happens during the connection initiation.

Any input would be greatly appreciated

http://www.ibm.com/software/integration/wmq/support/, or IBM Support Assistant
(ISA): http://www.ibm.com/software/support/isa/, to see whether a solution is 
already available.  If you are unable to find a match, contact your IBM support
center.  Do not discard these files until the problem has been resolved.

Which version of MQ 8 are you running? The IBM site says you need to be on 8.0.0.4 to use i 7.3

I'd also check the kernel configuration between TEST and PROD - the error is complaining about threading models and (if my limited recollection of IBM i is correct) that's controlled at the OS level and sounds like the sort of thing that would be set differently between TEST and PROD.

Finally, and assuming you're 8.0.0.4 or higher, raise a PMR.

As a final update:

issue is solved
rootcause was a wrong jar file on the calling server.
Error as described above is still present, but channel keeps in running state now after the connection is established.
