Error description

  • Customer's outbound AS2AsyncMDN process is kicked off to send
    data, but, it does not receive returning MDN and continues its
    retry logic. On its first send, it waits 5 minutes then
    checks for the return MDN. If not, it checks again in another
    5 minutes for a total of 5 times. After all the waiting and if
    still no MDN returned, it kicks off another process to send data
    again, and repeats the above wait process.
    In a normal situation, in 25-30 minutes is all it has to wait
    until the next send process is invoked. But, since the PMR was
    opened, customer noticed that it took almost 2 hours for the
    resend to occur, thus, the resends are taking longer and longer
    for resending the same data. At this time, there are 7000+ BP in
    the wait queue.

    Problem Description:
    Outbound AS2AsyncMDN process is kicked off to send but
    does not receive the returning MDN.
    In rare cases, under heavy load, where a BP reschedule keeps
    sending a BP to another node's waitQueue (Queue 0), BP's could
    keep bouncing around in various node waitqueues when nodes
    were load balancing.
