Error description
The KDE_TRANSPORT POOL: keyword does not permit configuration of socket port pools on the LOOPBACK device. To accommodate this , a new environment variable, KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL , can be used to configure a pool of available ports associated with the loopback device from which all Tivoli Monitoring socket requests are satisfied. The semantics of KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL are the same as the KDE_TRANSPORT POOL: keyword as it applied to the loopback device but the syntax differs. The usage is KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL=NNNNN-KKKKK , where NNNNN is the start of the port pool range, KKKKK is the end of the port pool range, and KKKKK - NNNNN <= 1024 . KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL resides in the same Tivoli product configuration file as does KDE_TRANSPORT.

Problem summary
Tivoli Monitoring configuration of socket port pools is not permitted on the LOOPBACK device. The Tivoli Monitoring KDE_TRANSPORT environment variable 'POOL:' keyword does not permit configuration of socket port pools on the LOOPBACK device. In order for this APAR to be properly implemented in your environment, a new environment variable has been added. See the "Install Actions" section of the APAR conclusion for more details.
Problem conclusion
Install Actions: Code has been added to support a new Tivoli Monitoring environment variable, KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL. KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL can be used to configure a pool of available ports associated with the loopback device from which all Tivoli Monitoring socket requests are satisfied. The semantics of KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL are the same as the KDE_TRANSPORT environment variable 'POOL:' keyword as it applied to the loopback device but the syntax differs. The usage is KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL=NNNNN-KKKKK , where NNNNN is the start of the port pool range, KKKKK is the end of the port pool range, and KKKKK - NNNNN <= 1024 . KDE_LOOPBACK_POOL resides in the same Tivoli product configuration file as does KDE_TRANSPORT.
