Error description
When running with multiple CICS link servers (wola client) and the Liberty profile server is recycled, the CICS link servers do not reconnect. The CICS link servers are set up to retry using BBOC START_SRVR with RETRY=Y so they should reconnect.
Local fix
run with one link server per CICS/Liberty connection
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server Liberty for z/OS who are using * * Websphere Optimized Local Adapters to * * connect outbound to CICS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When running with multiple CICS link * * servers (wola client) and the Liberty * * profile server is recycled, the CICS * * link servers do not reconnect. The * * CICS link servers are set up to retry * * using BBOC START_SRVR with RETRY=Y so * * they should reconnect. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When Multiple CICS Link servers connect from a single CICS Address space to a single WebSphere Liberty server and the server is recycled the rebind process will remove all the link server registrations associated with this WebSphere Liberty server. This fix prevents this from happening when an automatic rebind is in process.
Problem conclusion
When Multiple CICS Link servers connect from a single CICS Address space to a single WebSphere Liberty server and the server is recycled the rebind process successfully rebind with the WebSphere Liberty server after it restarts. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 22.0.0.8. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
Temporary fix
When running with 1 CICS Link server between 1 WebSphere Liberty and 1 CICS region. Rebinds of the WebSphere Liberty server after a recycle will complete successfully.
