It is possible but obviously 5.3 is no longer supported.
What issues are you having? |

We have the same application putting and pulling messages from both v5.3 and v6.
the reason is we are in process of moving to version 6 but we can't cut-over so we are moving the traffic from 5 to 6 in a slow process. |

It might be possible to do something interesting with CLASSPATH to use 2 versions (though obviously not at the same time!)

You shouldn't need to; a v6 client is perfectly capable of connecting to and using a v5.3 queue manager; I've seen it done for exactly the reason you give.
Without knowing more about your issues it's hard to comment on possible causes.

Interesting.
There should be an FDC file produced along with that with additional information.

that is exactly my problem as the mq administrator...
there is no indication from the server side at all, only on the client side. |

Make sure the client is not using the MQ v5.3 libraries, but the MQ v6 libraries.
Or at least make sure the client is using the LAST fixpack of MQ v5.3.
And trout yourself if you find the client is using MQ v5.3 CSD7, 8, 9, or 10. |

| v6 libraries will handle connections to 5.3 and 6 server on the same time? |

As I said above; an app using the v6 client should connect (and in my experience does connect) to a v5.3 or a v6 queue manager equally.

You need to do a client connection to both qmgrs.
You are only allowed bindings connection to the same single qmgr at a time in the same JVM.
Have fun
