IT11717: POOLED CONNECTIONS ARE NOT PROPERLY CLEANED UP WHEN THE .NET PROVIDER IS UNLOADED

APAR status

• Closed as fixed if next.

Error description

• .NET Connections can be left in an "orphan" state if the
  application unloads the .NET provider and there are valid
  connections in the pool.
  Applications like the IIS Worker process can dynamically load
  and unload the .NET provider assembly which could leave
  connections active in the engine which are never cleaned up.
