          { DETAIL    | SUMMARY  }

          { QMGR        qmgr     }
          { GROUP       group    }
          { SUBGroup    subgroup }
          { SUMMGRP     summgrp  }
}

Changed syntax parameters

• qmgr -Limit the display to only those entries with a corresponding value in the QMGR field. The qmgr value can be specified as a logical group name ">group".

  The associated logical group type is MQQMGR.

MQALTER

WebSphere MQ alter object

New data fields (authinfo objects):

• Authtype - Authentication type (CRLLDAP or OCSP).
• OcspUrl - The URL associated with the object TYPE=OCSP.

MQAUTHIN

WebSphere MQ authentication information objects

New data fields:

• OcspUrl - The URL associated with the object TYPE=OCSP.

MQBUFFER

Displays the MQ buffer statistics.

New Data Fields

• BuffCnt - The total number of buffers that are allocated for the pool.

  This field displays the same data as the Buffers field, but in addition shows the status for the MQ threshold variable QPSTNBUF. The Buffers field continues to be an input capable field that can be used to alter the size of the pool.

• Loc - The location of the buffer pool.

  Possible values:

  • ABOVE - The buffer pool is located in 64-bit storage above the bar.
  • BELOW - The buffer pool is located in 31-bit storage below the bar.
  • Blank - The release only supports below the bar storage, so the pool is located in 31-bit storage.

  The field is enabled for input when:

  • The queue manager is at 8.0.0 or above.
  • The queue manager is on the local system.
  • OPMODE(NEWFUNC,800) or a release higher than 800 in compatibility mode.
  • At least one page set is assigned to the pool.
• RowStat - The overall or highest conditional status field that is displayed on the row.

Changed Data Fields:

• Buffers - The field is enabled for input only when:
  • The queue manager is on the local system.
  • At least one page set is assigned to the pool.

  For the buffers located below the bar, the value is a number from 100 through 500000.

  For the buffers located above the bar, the value is a number from 100 through 999999999.

• CSteal - New status highlighting based on the MQBPCSTL MQ threshold variable.
• DasdR - New status highlighting based on the MQBPPIOR MQ threshold variable.
• DasdW - New status highlighting based on the MQBPPAGW MQ threshold variable.
• DWTSt - New status highlighting based on the MQBPAPWO MQ threshold variable.
• Free - New status highlighting based on the MQBPFREE MQ threshold variable.
• GetNP - New status highlighting based on the MQBPNEW MQ threshold variable.
• GetP - New status highlighting based on the MQBPGETS MQ threshold variable.
• NoBuf - New status highlighting based on the MQBPNOB MQ threshold variable.
• Pct% - New status highlighting based on the MQBPUSE% MQ threshold variable.
• SetW - New status highlighting based on the MQBPPAGU MQ threshold variable.
• Steals - New status highlighting based on the MQBPSTL MQ threshold variable.
• SynW - New status highlighting based on the MQBPSPWO MQ threshold variable.
• SynWP - New status highlighting based on the MQBPSWPS MQ threshold variable.
• TotPW - New status highlighting based on the MQBPPIOW MQ threshold variable.
• Used - New status highlighting based on the MQBPUSED MQ threshold variable.
