APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• EDIFACT Deenvelope Service can't handle incorrect input file
  and gets stuck in Active state, causing OOM and  Sterling B2B
  Integrator to
  crash. Looks like the EDIFACT Deenvelope service was unable to
  handle the incorrect input file (irregular EDI file that
  has UNH between UNT and UNZ).
  If you run more than one instance of EDIDeenvelope BP, those BPs
  will stay in 'Active" state and exhaust the free memory,
  which at some point leads to the system hanging, an OOM
  error and crash.
