Hello everyone,

I use MQSerie 5.3 on iSeries and when i run wrkmqmq I got this message:

WebSphere MQ object PAM.TESTPERF_RT.INITIATION.ODS.QUEUE is damaged

My question is: how can I delete this queue to create a new one with the same name?

Thanks in advance,
Tatmon

Hmmm... Interesting one...

On some platforms there are utilities or at least you could write one to take care of such states. But not sure of Iseries.

Unless you have an image of the object/qmgr it may not be easy to recover either.

So, i guess the only option would be to recreate the qm, unfortunately.

There could be some support packs that i am not aware of and someone else could throw some more light on it.

Usually you get into this state because something went wrong when your qm was processing a request, most likely a deletition of the queue, and something untoward happens. This leads the data in a haphazard state in the object catalogue. And which in turn leads to this error being thrown. Also this error usually goes with an FDC whenever you restart your qm or try to access this object.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
Kumar

You should be able to delete the queue from the panels, if not do you
have unix/nt system with channels to the AS/400 with conver set to yes ???

if so, from command prompt

echo "delete ql(DAMAGED_Q_NAME)" | runmqsc -w 40 AS400_QMGR_NAME

AS400_QMGR_NAME= either the qmgr name or the qmgr alias that points to the AS400

We have had this problem a couple of times with Windows.

One way to fix it is to go into the D:\Programs\IBM\WebSphere MQ\Qmgrs\QM1\QUEUES directory, find the file that corresponds to the damaged queue, and delete it. Restart the QM, and then recreate the queue again. I would think other platforms would be the same?

We have a ticket open with IBM on this, as it has happened twice to us in production (on 5.3 CSD04 no less).

I've found what to do:

I use the command RCRMQMOBJ to recreate the queue and it works fine.

NB: I've also tried to delete the directory which contains the queue definition in the IFS but it doesnt work.
