Missing dead-queue

[clapclash]

Hi everyone!
I am trying to complete a really simple jcl program, but I need to find the location or even better the name of the dead-letter queue. I am quite sure that it is not a default name because the previous programmer changed the name.
Can you please help to locate the dead-letter queue?
Thanks!

Are you referring to SMTP, or to MQ SERIES, or to some other system function that you did not bother to tell us? "Dead letter queue" is not a term commonly used on mainframes, so it may very well be something specific to your site, in which case nobody on this forum is likely to be able to help you.

please think about it....
how are we supposed to know what the previous programmer did ???

Hello,

If you post what you are trying to run (using the Code tag) and explain what you are trying to accomplish and where there is an issue, someone may have a suggestion.

A JCL program? JCL is not a programming language but is for Job Control. So, are you creating a program or the JCL to run a program?

Thank you for your replies!
I am referring to MQ SERIES and I just want to find the name of the Dead-letter queue, as I do not know how to find it in WebSphere MQ using the ISPF panels.
Basically JCL runs a payment program:

Code: Select all

//PAY JOB MSGCLASS=H
//PROCS JCLLIB ORDER=CBC.SCCNPRC
//CLG EXEC EDCCPLG,
//    INFILE=ZOS.LOAD.C(PAYMENT),
//    CPARM='BOOK,CHECKOUT(ALL),SSCOM',
//    LPARM='AMODE(31),MAP,XREF,BOOK,AC=1'
//COMPILE.SYSLIB DD DSN=WMQ.V6R0.SCSQ370,DISP=SHR
//LKED.SYSLIB  DD DSN=CEE.SCEELKED,DISP=SHR
//                    DD DSN=WMQ.V6R0.SCSLOAD,DISP=SHR
//LKED.SYSLMOD DD DSN=ID067.LOAD(PAYMENT),DISP=SHR
//LKED.SYSIN DD *
    INCLUDE SYSLIB(CSQSTUB)
    ENTRY CEESTART
    NAME PAYMENT(R)
/*

Using the WebSphere ISPF I need to find the name of the dead-letter queue. If you have any more questions please do not hesitate to ask

Hello,

You have posted the compile JCL and linkedit control statements.

How does this relate to a dead-letter queue?

If some diagnostic info is presented, you need to post it (copy/paste - do not retype).

Presumably, you asked in this forum because MQ Series has ISPF panels. However, this forum is to discuss how to do things in TSO and ISPF. Because the people here know ISPF, that fact should not imply that we know how to configure MQ Series.

You will be better served to ask your question in an MQ Series forum

Thanks Pedro,

Topic relocated to the Websphere MQ part of the forum.

But even there, i'm not sure how the posted info relates to the question . . .

I would start by looking at all of the files starting with WMQ.V6R0, since that is where the stub lives. There may be some configuration members in those PDSs.
