****************************************************************
Replication operations that come from non-SIP container
threads (JMS for instance) are stored on an internal
"immediate replication" queue which is not cleared in case of
End Of Service (EOS) replication mode. This might cause SIP
container threads to hang when the queue
reaches its maximum capacity.

Problem conclusion

When replication is issued from a non SIP container threads,
it will be executed immediately on the calling thread and will
not wait to an end of service. (operations that are done on a
non SIP container threads are not in a context of a "service"
anyway)

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fixpacks 6.1.0.23 and 7.0.0.3.  Please refer to the Recommended
