Why does creation of Channel Auth record fail with AMQ4999 ?
I'm using the WebSphere MQ Explorer to create a channel auth record for a new queue manager. When I click FINISH in the wizard, creation fails with "An unexpected error (2119) has occurred. (AMQ4999)" with the Explanation : "An unlisted error has occurred in the system while retrieving PCF data." What could this issue be ?
This error can happen if the required channel authentication data queue has not been defined (SYSTEM.CHLAUTH.DATA.QUEUE). MQRC 2119 points to a conversion error most likely because the message format (which should be MQADMIN for PCF messages) does not match the actual content of the message. Ensure that SYSTEM.CHLAUTH.DATA.QUEUE is defined, using the example as provided in the JCL sample, CSQ4INSA that was shipped with the product.
