Channel Conversion Error

---

Event name:	Channel Conversion Error.
Reason code in MQCFH:	MQRC_CHANNEL_CONV_ERROR (2284, X'8EC'). Channel conversion error.
Event description:	This condition is detected when a channel is unable to carry out data conversion and the MQGET call to get a message from the transmission queue resulted in a data conversion error. The reason for the failure is identified by ConversionReasonCode.
Event type:	Channel.
Platforms:	All, except WebSphere MQ for z/OS if CICS is used for distributed queue management.
Event queue:	SYSTEM.ADMIN.CHANNEL.EVENT.

Note:

MQSeries for Windows V2.1 does not define the channel event queue for you, so the default action is not to generate channel events. This is because, once you have defined a channel event queue, you cannot stop channel event messages being generated. If you want WebSphere MQ to generate channel events, define the channel event queue yourself using the name SYSTEM.ADMIN.CHANNEL.EVENT.
