Hi,

We have just modified the connection of one of our client applications to use a queue manager group. However they only have one parameter in their configuration file to specify the qmgr. This is used for the MQCONN call (which works fine) and the reply-to queue manager field in the MQMD. Now when it comes to replies being put back to the app they are being put to *TECHTEST which bears no relation to the actual queue manager name, and therefore fails!

I cannot define *TECHTEST as a qmgr alias on the possible reply qmgrs because it contains an invalid character and I would not be able to ensure it went back to the right one.

This is the first time we have dealt with qmgr groups for client connections... and I really need some help!

Thanks,
Vicky

Apologies for talking to myself, but I thought I'd share the solution I have reached...

The answer is to make code changes so that the client does not set the ReplyToQmgr.

Quote:
If the ReplyToQMgr field is blank, the local queue manager looks up the ReplyToQ name in its queue definitions. If ... If a local definition of a remote queue does not exist, the ReplyToQMgr that is transmitted with the message is the name of the local queue manager.


Unfortunately this means going back a few stages in the testing cycle but we will just have to take that hit.

Thanks.
