PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
WebSphere Process Server 6.0.2.x users

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Override REPLYTO queue flag in MQ
bindings does not do anything.

RECOMMENDATION:
None

We have an export with MQBinding, On the message configuration
tab, we have the 'Override reply to queue of request message'
checked.If an MQ message request with the mqmd reply to Q
value of null is sent to the receive destination queue, the
response is routed correctly to the send destination queue as
defined in the End-point configuration.  If an MQ message
request with the mqmd reply to Q value of non-null is sent to
the receive destination queue, the response is routed to the
value that is in the MQMD of  the request message.  If an MQ
message request with the mqmd reply to Q value of non-null is
sent to the receive destination queue, the response is routed
to the value that is in the MQMD of  the request message.  The
'override reply to queue' IS ignored when the MQMD - reply  to
properties are set.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
This problem has been fixed by doing corrective actions.
