IT31305: BIPSERVICE TERMINATES AFTER STARTING BIPBROKER IF UNABLE TO UPDATE REGISTRY WITH PID

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• If the bipservice process detects that the bipbroker process
  (Integration Node) has terminated unexpectedly, it will restart
  the process and update the registry with the new process ID. If
  the registry file update fails, for example if the file system
  is full due to a large core file having been created, then the
  bipservice process terminates leaving an orphaned bipbroker.

Problem summary

  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  The bipservice process is the first process that is started when
  starting an Integration Node. It will start and monitor the
  bipbroker (AdminAgent) process. If the bipservice process
  detects that the bipbroker process has terminated unexpectedly,
  it will restart the process and update the registry with the new
  process ID. If the registry file update fails, for example if
  the file system is full, the exception is not handled and the
  bipservice process terminates leaving an orphaned bipbroker.
  

Problem conclusion

• The bipbroker now catches the exception if the registry update
  fails, logs a BIP2110E error, and continues. The user should
  review the error and take the appropriate action.
