JR28562: MULTIPLE RTP PIPES WITH SAME COS BETWEEN 2 ADJACENT CONTROL POIN TS.

Personal Communications 5.9.7
Personal Communications 5.9.6
Communications Server for Windows, Version 6.1.3 -- Latest Fixpack

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When running HPR to an adjacent control point there were
  multiple RTP pipes for 1 COS. Each new LU-LU session would drive
  a new RTP pipe for the same COS. There should be only 1 RTP
  pipe for each COS.
  

Local fix

• remove any adjacent linkstation routing profiles previously used
  for SUBAREA.
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All running HPR between CS/WIN to a          *
  *                 VTAM host with adjacent link profiles        *
  *                 present in the acg.                          *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: If the ACG (config) file still          *
  *                      contains the old subarea linkstation    *
  *                      routing profiles and your now using     *
  *                      APPN and HPR to the host, you can       *
  *                      see multiple rtp pipes for the LU-LU    *
  *                      COS, one for each session.              *
  *                                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The logic for comparing the RTP pipes
  to check for a suitable one was done
  before we knew the actual remote NCE.
  Therefore, the requested RTP
  connection failed to match with an
  existing suitable one.
  

Problem conclusion

• The actual NCE is noted after the RSETUP response is received
  and a check done to see if an existing pipe matches the
  requested new one.
  

Temporary fix
