CREATE PCL DATA QUEUES

Revised: 2007-04-24


PCL creates and uses two data queues in the QGPL library. They are named xxxxxxxxDN and xxxxxxxxUP, where xxxxxxxx represents the System Name of the iSeries. The iSeries System Name appears in the top right corner of most system menus, and it can also be displayed with the DSPNETA command.  

These two data queues are normally created just once, and they can serve any number of users. They are automatically created under either of these two conditions.  

A problem with the creation of the data queues has been discovered when they are created as a result of condition #1 above. They are created incorrectly, and PCL will not function.

The solution is to delete them, and cause them to be created as described in condition #2 above.

 

Supplemental Note: Power Failure

It has been observed that if the iSeries goes down hard as the result of a power failure, one or both of these data queues may be reported as being "damaged". The solution to this situation is to delete them and recreate them, exactly as described below.
