APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
If you have a test that uses IBM WebSphere MQ request-reply with temporary destinations, connections grow for each message. Connections are freed up when RIT is closed. STEPS TO REPRODUCE: 1. Create an MQ transport. 2. Create a test with a Send Request-Receive Reply action. 3. Configure the Send Request and click the Dynamic Reply check-box. 4. Run the test. 5. View the Queue Manager Connection Count in IBM WebSphere MQ Explorer EXPECTED RESULTS: The number of connections remains static. ACTUAL RESULTS: The connection number increases by 1 every time the test is run. Connections are freed when RIT is closed down. WORKAROUNDS: Restart RIT to free connections. OR Use fixed reply queues.
