So, what version of IBM MQ (aka WebSphere MQ & MQSeries) are you running? Are you behind in upgrading your release of MQ?
Everybody “should be” running IBM MQ v9.2, v9.3 or v9.4, if you want support from IBM.
In case it has slipped your mind, here is a list of IBM MQ releases and there end of service dates:
- IBM MQ v9.2 is September 30, 2025.
- IBM MQ v9.1 was September 30, 2023.
- IBM MQ v9.0 was September 30, 2021.
