Parameter descriptions

 

(connection-identifier)

The identifier of the connection definition for the connection to be broken.

When an application connects to WebSphere MQ, it is given a unique 24–byte connection identifier (ConnectionId). The value of CONN is formed by converting the last eight bytes of the ConnectionId to its 16–character hexadecimal equivalent.

EXTCONN

The value of EXTCONN is based on the first sixteen bytes of the ConnectionId converted to its 32–character hexadecimal equivalent.

Connections are identified by a 24-byte connection identifier. The connection identifier comprises a prefix, which identifies the queue manager, and a suffix which identifies the connection to that queue manager. By default, the prefix is for the queue manager currently being administered, but we can specify a prefix explicitly by using the EXTCONN parameter. Use the CONN parameter to specify the suffix.

When connection identifiers are obtained from other sources, specify the fully qualified connection identifier (both EXTCONN and CONN) to avoid possible problems related to non-unique CONN values.
