  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • A switch policy in API Connect v5/v5c currently uses a separate
DataPower rule for every condition in the switch.  APIs with
large switch policies may fail with either an error indicating
that the Loop/conditional action recursive depth too deep or
with the maximum call depth has been exceeded.

Local fix

Problem summary


    

  • Each switch policy condition was being evaluated by an
individual DataPower rule which would cause errors when the
<span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)">DataPower
</span>maximum call or loop counts were exceeded.  All
conditions within the switch policy will now be evaluated in one
DataPower rule which greatly reduces the number of called rules
required for large switch policies.

    



Problem conclusion


    

  • <span style="background-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)">A fix will be
provided in the API Connect releases 10.5.0.1 and
10.0.1.7.</span>
