Fail-over to what? qm1 to server B and qm2 to server A? What do the server logs say in regard to the fail-over? Which OS? Which version of MQ?

More information helps more targeted advice.

Queue manager error logs are circular by nature so what other errors (if any) are being written into those logs?

It shouldn't be, but lack of storage or other resources can have a negative impact on a queue manager.

If the queue manager failed over because of an error then the queue manager generates FDCs. I suggest checking for FDC files in /var/mqm/errors directory. You can also run the command ffstsummary in /var/mqm/errors directory to generate FDC summary.

Thanks,

The issue was because the SAN server was rebooted..causing qm to failover..but once qm failover the listener port of qm was running on both servers.. due to this application connectivity failed..application is connecting to qm via load balancer.. mq version is 7.5.0.0 and running on Solaris . Is this due to shared drive lock issue ..that the ports didnot get failover...? Also once application restarted they were able to connect to active instance

Apply maintenance and check the application is coded correctly to try disconnecting and reconnecting as appropriate, and the DefRecon value in the mqclient.ini file (if being used).
