AlterationDate (12-byte character string)

Date when definition was last changed.

Local	Model	Alias	Remote	Cluster
Y		Y	Y

This is the date when the definition was last changed. The format of the date is

YYYY-MM-DD, padded with two trailing blanks to make the length 12 bytes (for example,

1992-09-23  , where    represents 2 blank characters).

It is normal for the values of certain attributes to change as the queue manager operates (for example, CurrentQDepth). Changes to these attributes do not affect AlterationDate. Also, changes resulting from use of the MQSET call do not affect AlterationDate.

To determine the value of this attribute, use the CAALTD selector with the MQINQ call. The length of this attribute is given by LNDATE.
