Step by Step scenario
  1. Run analysis
  2. Examine Results
Action Plan

Perform the below actions

  1. This is normally the case of a resolution issue as mentioned in the documentation here:  Mainframe - Technical notes . In order to understand if the publisher/subscriber name is included in the source code(cobol or copybook file)

    1. Check the source code for a clear reference assignment of the cobol variant that assigns the publisher/subscriber name in CALL 'MQPUT'/'MQOPEN' or CALL ''MQSUB'/'MQGET
    2. If there is no clear reference, the name may be assigned from some external process like a call to EXEC SQL, which would then make this expected as the name is saved inside a db table
  2. If the above steps do not solve your issue contact CAST Technical Support. with the following relevant input

 

Relevant input

  • MAinframe analysis log and cobol/cooybook file relevant to the object that is created
