Don't know if I'm being stupid here but we're just running some housekeeping on our environment and deleting some queues that are no longer required (or so we believe). One of the queues however stated that it couldn't be deleted as the object is open. Is there an easy way of finding out exactly what has the queue open? We know what process should have had it open and that's already been deleted (was no longer required)

Thanks in advance.

Well it more than likely a orphaned handle and you will need to recycle the qmgr to get rid of it.

With WebSphere MQ 5.3, you can tell who has a queue open. You use the display qstatus command.

Well it wont matter what process was attached to the queue if the handle was orphaned, the qmanager will still need to be recycled

Also, just to point out, you can't stop the queue manager with "endmqm -w" if there are any orphaned handles, as the queue manager will simply wait forever...

Thanks guys, unfortunately still on 5.2 so can't use the QSTATUS command yet nice to know we have the facility in the future though. Just got to arrange an outage on the server now.
