Hi,

We see that there are few messages in DLQ in production.

The application which has put the message is amqpcsea and the reason is "mqrc_q_deleted" for the destination queue AMQ.5D7133BE2C1ADD5C.

This is not an application queue and this looks like a temporary dynamic queue which got deleted before the reply for the command was sent

We did not run any command on this queue manager, but we are connected to this QM from MQ Explorer, so could it because of some operation performed through MQ Explorer? Are MQ Explorer operations performed via SYSTEM.ADMIN.COMMAND.QUEUE?

The SYSTEM.ADMIN.COMMAND.QUEUE has default persistent as YES. So could this be the reason for the messages to go to DLQ? But the reply messages which has gone to DLQ are non-persistent

Though the persistence property of that queue was changed a year ago, we are seeing this issue first time and that too only few messages are there in DLQ, and this issue was never observed in lower environments

There was sometime back in early versions of MQ8 a bug by which the last response message from the command server was not picked up from the requester... maybe that can help

...

This is the classic situation where an app sent a PCF command message to the MQ command processor, with reply queue name set to a dynamic queue. The app terminated &/or the dynamic queue was deleted before the MQ command processor could put all of the command reply messages. Such is life.

We have a triggered runmqdlq with rules that discard these messages, eg.
ACTION(DISCARD) REASON(2085) DESTQ(WMQFTE.*)
ACTION(DISCARD) REASON(2085) DESTQ(AMQ.*)
ACTION(DISCARD) REASON(2085) DESTQ(MQMON.*)

No, this is the response of your PCF command, which shall be put into the queue "AMQ...", not into the command queue. The queue default persistency is set by the corresponding model queue. And non-persistent messages may put to the DLQ as well.

By the way: A temporary dynamic queue created by MQ Explorer should have a name like "AMQ.MQEXPLORER..." and MQMON (MO71) should have a name like "MQMON.<username>...".

Maybe it's another tool which creates the queue?

And an attempt to put a persistent message to a temporary dynamic queue will fail with a reason code I'm too lazy to look up.

What is being described by the OP sounds an awful lot like the command server bug where it attempts to PUT another reply after it has closed the reply queue. I still see evidence of this sporadically happening in my MQ environment, even with more recent levels of MQ software. I am not 100% sure, but pretty sure I have seen recent evidence of this happening on MQ 9.1.0.1 queue managers. As fjb_saper mentioned, there have been previous bugs like this that have been fixed in the command server.
