DB2 and the Coupling Facility fail

If the Coupling Facility fails, the queue manager might fail, and DB2 will also fail if it is using this Coupling Facility.

Recover DB2 using DB2 recovery procedures. When DB2 has been restarted, we can restart the queue managers. The CF administration structure will also have failed, but this is rebuilt by restarting all the queue managers within the queue-sharing group.

If a single application structure within the Coupling Facility suffers a failure, the effect on the queue manager depends on the level of the queue manager and the CFLEVEL of the failed CF structure:

If the structure has experienced a connection failure, the queue manager fails. On queue manager restart (after the connection failure has been rectified), the connection is reestablished, but no recovery takes place for a structure at any CFLEVEL.

See WebSphere MQ Script (MQSC) Command Reference for details of the RECOVER CFSTRUCT command.
