Error description

  • WebSphere MQ Java Message Service (JMS) v7 client applications
    that utilise shared
    connections may create either too many conversations per
    connection, or too few conversations before creating a new
    connection.
    
    The problem is more prevalent on systems where many JMS
    connection or JMS session objects are created at the same time.
    
    Apart from establishing too many or too few conversations per
    connection, the JMS connection and JMS Session objects operate
    normally.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    USERS AFFECTED:
    This issue affects users with WebSphere MQ JMS v7 client
    applications that utilise shared connections. This is the
    default mode.
    
    Platforms affected:
    All Distributed (iSeries, all Unix and Windows) +Java
    ****************************************************************
    PROBLEM SUMMARY:
    Two issues appeared to cause the symptoms:
    
    1. Multiple connection pools were created, resulting in many
    connections with low conversation counts.
    
    2. If the same pool was used, the maximum allowed
    conversations per connection was exceeded, due to a timing
    window between the creation of the conversation and the
    updating of the connection pool counters
    

Problem conclusion

  • Multiple connection pools are no longer created, and the
    connection pool counters now correctly represent the number of
    conversations for each connection.
