I was testing out some code, and wanted to set the max depth of the queue to a low value for the duration of a test. I thought this was easy; just use MQSET, specify parameter MQIA_MAX_Q_DEPTH, and the value I wanted (9). When it reported Reason 2067: FAILED: MQRC_SELECTOR_ERROR I added in extra code to printout the values and yes, this was the value returned. If this was a bug I was sure it would have been spotted many years ago. I checked the documentation (remember, if all else fails, read the documentation). Look, I can set get inhibit, put inhibit etc ahh - max depth was not listed. So when you get Reason 2067: FAILED: MQRC_SELECTOR_ERROR please check the documentation. colin paice | January 25, 2022 at 8:14 am | Categories: MQ on z/OS, Z/OS | URL: https://wp.me/p9TgPz-2Qi Comment    See all comments    Like Unsubscribe to no longer receive posts from ColinPaice.
