Hello,
I have a small question.
I just cleaned messages from a queue, and they are actually removed from the queue.
But when I check the q file in the queues data directory, they are still in there.
Why is that? How can we remove it from the actual q file?

The msgs have been removed from the msg chains so they are no longer accessible, but they remain in the physical queue file until the file is compressed. This happens at a checkpoint if nobody has the queue open and it has contained no msgs for the previous 2 checkpoints, or at qmgr shutdown.

Hello,

This means that we always need to shut down the application or mq to clean up the physical queue???

Why is ithis a problem for you? Security? If these files are not on a safe place, you have a problem with or without old data in the files.
