Reset MQ Channel (RSTMQMCHL)
- Where allowed to run
- All environments (*ALL)
- Threadsafe
- Yes
The Reset MQ Channel (RSTMQMCHL) command resets the message sequence number for an MQ channel to a specified sequence number for use the next time that the channel is started.
You are recommended to uset this command for Sender(*SDR), Server (*SVR) and Cluster-sender (*CLUSSDR) channels only.
If we use this command for a Receiver (*RCVR), Requester (*RQSTR) or Cluster-receiver (*CLUSRCVR) channel, the value at the other end of the channel is NOT reset. You must reset the values separately.
The command does not work for Server-connection (*SVRCN) channels.
