Good Day All. I'm new to an upgrade project and upon completing an initial assessment, I've discovered one Qmgr that has an 8,000 log difference between logs that are needed for Media Recovery and Qmgr Restart.
I've executed " rcdmqimg -l -m **** -t all * " for about a week with the required logs for Media Recovery not changing.
Also, the person that was "taking care of MQ" is using a script that simply deletes everything older than what is needed for Qmgr Restart. So there's no Media Recovery logs at this time.
=============
The oldest log file required to start queue manager qmgr is S0281413
The oldest log file required to perform media recovery of queue manager qmgr is
S0272499
=============
I've never seen this before so are there any ideas out there?
Win 2000 sp4
MQ V5.3 csd 13
Thanks,
Rich |

Do you really mean -m *, or is that just for security in this thread?

| Ahhh. My mistake for not mentioning the asterisks. That is for security. |

Could you have any old unresolved transactions on the qmgr?
Do you get something if you run dspmqtrn ?
Don't know how 5.3 behaves at CSD13... at CSD11 it behaves fine...
Any FCD's being cut?
Can you bounce the qmgr?

I'd guess that someone, way back during log file S0272499, did a record image (rcdmqimg) command. Rcdmqimg is used to record object image(s) for media recovery. These images are written to the logs; and can be recovered with the rcrmqobj command.

Bruce, looks like you missed this line:

on the odd chance does something change if you issue the command like this:
| Code: |
| rcdmqimg -l -m YOURQMGR -t all \* |
Note the backslash before the star

three months back, when i observed a considerable gap between log files required for restart and media recovery..i have executed the rcdmqimg command to record the media image of all the mq objects...even after that, the gap persists...finally i bounce the queue manager and executed the rcdmqimg, now the log file required for restart and media recovery close enough..
