This is a list of the Assembler programs that are useful for sites that run
WebsphereMQ on the mainframe.
The programs, even if they do not actually use MQ, are MQ related.

| Issues a WTOR with the passed message text and waits for a reply from the operators. The source code is available within the XMI file.For installation instructions click the button below. This program is distributed as a TSO TRANSMIT file. The program is distributed as OCO (Object Code Only). The file will need to be transferred to a z/OS system in binary format and then RECEIVED.

| This assembler program will display all of the MQ systems that are defined to a z/OS system. It will show the status of the systems (i.e Active or Inactive), the MQ version and the PTF level. MQVERC is the Cobol equivalent to the MQVER program. The PTF level will be that of the Early Load program, CSQ3EPX. The output from MQVER is a series of WTO (Write To Operator) messages. It will look similar to this:
This program is distributed as a TSO TRANSMIT file. The source code is included in the SOURCE PDS. The file will need to be transferred to a z/OS system in binary format and then RECEIVED. | ||

| QMGRWAIT is a little assembler program that can be called whenever an MQ enabled program detects a MQ Reason code of 2161 (Queue Manager is Quiescing) is returned from a MQ API (Application Program Interface) call. All well-behaving MQ enabled programs must handle non-zero return codes in a manner that applies to the application requirements, but a return code of 2161 requires special handling. QMGRWAIT will issue a write to operator with reply (WTOR) letting the operator know that the calling job is trying to access a queue manager that is quiescing (closing down). However, if you don't want a WTOR to be issued in can issue a non-delete write to operator (WTO) instead. The options available are:

| Replacement for MQVER with the added ability to return a condition code based on the MQ subsystem status. This program is distributed as a TSO TRANSMIT file. The source code is included in the SOURCE PDS. The file will need to be transferred to a z/OS system in binary format and then RECEIVED. Link to information page click here.
