Error description
During overload on container thread queues (CWSCT0413W), the container doesn't come back out of the overload.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All IBM Websphere Application Server * * Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: During overload, the SIP Container * * thread gets stuck. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** During overload on container thread queues ( CWSCT0413W ), the container doesn't come back out of the overload. The stack thread (SIP Stack LoopBack Address thread) gets blocked since the queue is full, and all other threads (including the container's) are waiting for it.
Problem conclusion
Changed our code to use offer() instead of put() in AppQueueHandler.dispatchMessage(). This way we won't get blocked when the queue is full and just fail the message. We also increased the burst factor of the queue to 10 (and also made it configurable), so it won't get full quickly but only when there is a real issue. To configure the queue burst factor, the following custom property should be configured for the SIP Container: Name: message.queue.burst.factor Default value: 10 Description: The burst factor for the message queue size. The message queue size will be set to the specified size * the burst factor, in order to allow some additional space in the queue before we really fail new messages (we do not want the queue to be blocked on capacity). The custom property should be configured via the administrative console like any other SIP Container custom property and as described in the Information Center: http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v8r0/topic/com.ibm.web sphere.nd.iseries.doc/info/iseriesnd/ae/rjpx_sipcontaincustprops .html The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix packs 8.0.0.5 and 8.5.0.1.
