Cause

This issue is identified as a defect.

Resolution

There are currently no plans to address this issue through a patch or hotfix in the current or previous versions of the software. However, it is scheduled to be resolved in the next major product revision. Please note that the product engineering team reserves the right to remove any fix from the targeted release if it does not pass quality assurance tests. Our plans are subject to change, and any actions you take based on this information, or your reliance on it, are at your own risk

As a workaround for the currently impacted Infoscale versions, the below steps can be performed:

1) From all impacted nodes, delete the registry key for Clustered MSMQ that was created by the previous command.

2) Download the two attached files (msmqconfig.txt and msmqconfigdll.txt)

3) Rename the msmqconfig.txt to msmqconfig.exe

4) Rename the msmqconfigdll.txt to msmqconfigdll.dll

5) Paste both the files at %VCS_HOME%\bin path (Select Replace the file in the destination when prompted )

6) Re-run the msmqconfig command and it should now provide a valid path for Mount path attribute and the corresponding keys in the registry.
