				Hi,
 
Based on the discussion about HEARTBEAT Vs ADOPT MCA, I would like to post about my systems and my doubts. I appreciate if you could explain me.
 
We have a tandem system running mq5.1 connecting to a NT server running mq 5.2. 
 
In our scenario we see the sender channel in a running state on the Tandem, and the NT receiver channels is inactive. The problem is the Tandem sender channel never goes into a retry state. We have to stop/start the tandem sender channel. How can we get this to work correctly?
 
We have the disconnect interval set to 0 since the channel is in use 7x24.  We see a TCP/IP MQ error on the NT server but the Tandem thinks
 
everything is fine. What setting can be used to better correct this problem? _________________ Thanks in Advance.

				If you feel your channel is in use 24/7  then set the DISCINT  to an hour (which means it disconnects after an hour of inactivity). At DISCINT 0 the channel  always goes to the retry state. Have you tried the short retry interval and long retry interval and their corresponding counts. 
 
 
My gut feeling is: Having your DISCINT 0 and if you have the retry counts fairly short then the sender may stop retrying after the counts are exhausted

				Well, you will be pleased to know that you are not the only one who has seen this.
 
 
As far as I know this is a known problem with 5.1 - no TCP/IP time out. This has been resolved in 5.2
 
 
Essentially the tcp/ip time out (twice that of HBINT) checks if the connection is still active and if not it resets the connection.
 
 
The only solution that I am aware of is to upgrade to 5.2

				When the sender channel is in the run state is there any messages in its
 
xmitq, if not try sending test message this throw it into retry. _________________ Jeff
