Error description

  • When WebSphere Application Server default Messaging Provider,
    implemented by the Service Integration Bus (SIB), connects to a
    WebSphere MQ, the error 2025 (MQRC_MAX_CONNS_LIMIT_REACHED) is
    seen on the MQ side when the channel initiator is restarted.
    On the SIB side, the following are written to an FFDC file:

    gerFactory.java:959)

    ****************************************************************
    The service integration bus messaging engine incorrectly sets
    a limit on the number of internally created connections to the
    WebSphere MQ Server bus member queue manager. Under normal
    operation, this might cause MQRC_MAX_CONNS_LIMIT_REACHED
    exceptions, which are treated as severe exceptions by the
    messaging engine and cause MDB applications to be disconnected
    and need to reconnect to the bus.
    
    In addition, the incorrect specification of a limit by the
    messaging engine combines with WebSphere MQ APAR IZ83390,
    causing MQRC_MAX_CONNS_LIMIT_REACHED errors to be reported
    even when the limit has not been reached, especially after
    losing connectivity to a queue manager.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The fix for this APAR removes the incorrectly specified
    internal limit on the number of connections a messaging engine
    could make to a queue manager. This removes the possibility of
    encountering WebSphere MQ APAR IZ83390, and prevents the
    arbitrary limit from causing CWSIP0002 errors during normal
    operation.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.15.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
