Answer 1

The pertinent pieces of information from your provided error are:-
JMSWMQ0018: Failed to connect to queue manager 'RQACBRKB'
with connection mode 'Client' and host name '172.11.11.11(6912)'.
com.ibm.mq.jmqi.JmqiException: CC=2;RC=2538;
MQRC 2538 is MQRC_HOST_NOT_AVAILABLE which is explained in Knowledge Center. In there it mentions the most common reasons for this error:-
The listener has not been started on the remote system. (please check that your listener is running on port 6912 on the machine at IP address 172.11.11.11)
The connection name in the client channel definition is incorrect. (the connection name your client is using is '172.11.11.11(6912)' - is this correct?)
The network is currently unavailable.
A firewall blocking the port, or protocol-specific traffic.
The security call initializing the IBM MQ client is blocked by a security exit on the SVRCONN channel at the server.

Answer 2

"java.net.ConnectException: Connection timed out: connect" usually occurs when you have a config issue or you are unable to connect to the remote server. As mentioned above do you have an error on the MQ end and if not have you checked the connection properties within config. If these are correct, are you able to reach MQ from another client, such as SOAPUI?
Can you also post the connector and flow details?
