Please be advised of an MQ Trade External Gateway Migration in the PRODUCTION environment this Saturday evening, November 3, 2018 from 2200 ET to 0200 ET (AFTER the Daylight Savings Time change). During this time, CBP will migrate the MQ Gateway off of the mainframe. The following applications will be impacted: ACE, AES and ACS.
During the migration activities, CBP will NOT be able to receive any transactions and consequently they will NOT be held in any CBP queues. As a result, TRADING PARTNERS AND PGA's WILL HAVE TO HOLD ALL MESSAGES IN THEIR SYSTEMS UNTIL AFTER THE DOWNTIME. For transactions received prior to the downtime, any outgoing messages from CBP will be held in queues and sent after the downtime.
There will be no additional data coming to ACE, AES and ACS via EDI for the duration of the outage.
The ACE Portal will not be impacted; however, no new data will be displayed nor received.
