IMPORTANT

This E-Fix MUST be applied to builds 6.6.0 of Navigator or later (6.6.x/6.7.x)

This component is compatible with workgroup servers for both version 10 and version 11.

NOTE: Workgroup Server 6 (nsqmgr) updates are no longer supplied.

Prerequisites

Navigator 6.6.x or 6.7.x for Linux RHEL (x86_64).

Installation Steps

Stop all Nastel processes.
Back up the %APWMQ_HOME% directory
Place M6WMQ_6.7_LINUX_RHEL_x86_64_EF9.8.tar.gz in the installation directory (%APWMQ_HOME%).
Extract the contents here, under %APWMQ_HOME% replacing existing content.
Restart Nastel processes (nsqmgr is no longer supported).

NOTE: To enable support to use non-dynamic reply queues for nsqcm (WGSCM-661) you will need the file mqqual.ini under config/groups. This package includes a sample (mqqual.sam) that shows how the values should be set.

NASTEL.REPLYQ.EVENT - Used for discovery
NASTEL.REPLYQ.INQ - Used for Inquire commands
NASTEL.REPLYQ.CMD - Used for Change/Create/Delete commands
NASTEL.REPLYQ.ZOS - Used if connecting to z/OS queue manager and using the -N flag
