2868.0. "Problems with TEST utility under WinNT" by DSC000::WHELAN (_.... as a mouse!) Fri May 09 1997 10:23

 Hi,

 DMQ V3.2 running on WindowsNT V4.0 SP2

 Using the provided test utility we make a temporary connection
 to the bus and then put a message with DEL=WF_DQF and UMA=SAF
 to a remote queue. 

 Why is it that the displayed status block tells us that the
 delivery status is ENQUEUED and UMA status is NO_UMA - even
 when the remote machine is not accessible (ie. we removed
 our machine from the ethernet!) ??

 Regards,
 John.

2868.1problem not restricted to the TEST utilityDSC000::WHELAN_.... as a mouse!Fri May 09 1997 13:2411
 Delving into this further - this problem is not purely limited
 to the TEST utility. Our own server demonstrates the same
 result - ie. disconnected from the network, the status block
 following a disconnection from the network, shows a delivery
 status of ENQUEUED.

 Can someone please explain what is going on here?
 Am I missing something, or are these messages truely lost?

 Regards,
 John.

    the messages are in the SAF.

 Surely if they are stored in the SAF then the status block
 ought to contain: Delivery Status of some failure and
		   UMA Status of SAF_SUCCESS

 Why is this not the case?

 Also, as per a previous note, how can I view what is stored
 in the SAF?

 Clarifications are anxiously awaited.....

 Regards,
 John.

    On non-VMS platforms,  all xx_SAF and UMA_SAF traffic flows
    through the SAF.  stuff that is xx_SAF gets a stored, stuff
    that is UMA_SAF gets ENQUEUED as a function of the original
    xx_DQF delivery mode.
    
    You can look at what is in the SAF using the dmqjdump utili-
    ty.
