Error description
The default value for InactiveConnectionSupport has been set to true for WebSphere built-in Relational resource adapter causing the following exception on failOverToAlternateResource operation. [3/17/14 20:38:29:914 EDT] 000000b1 ConnectionFac W J2CA0688W: The FailOverToAlternateResource operation issued for the resource with a JNDI name of ..... failed. Cause: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Request to failover to alternate cannot be executed on a resource that is not failover support configured. No-op. at com.ibm.ejs.j2c.PoolManager.failOverToAlternateResource(PoolMana ger.java :10189) at com.ibm.ejs.j2c.mbeans.ConnectionFactoryMbeanImpl.failOverToAlte rnateResource(ConnectionFactoryMbeanImpl.java:1640) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V8.5 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The WebSphere J2C resource workload * * routing mbean operation * * failOverToAlternateResource fails * * with IllegalStateException * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When using the ConnectionFactory Mbean operation failOverToAlternateResource to manually failover to an alternate server, the following exception might occur for a cell scoped datasource even if the alternate resource has been configured using the custom property alternateResourceJNDIName. java.lang.IllegalStateException: Request to failover to alternate cannot be executed on a resource that is not failover support configured.No-op. Another symptom is that when a cell scoped datasource is configured for automatic failover using the properties alternateResourceJNDIName and failureThreshold, the failover does not happen. This issue happens because during the PoolManager initialization the failover support(ie resource workload routing) is not being enabled because the property InactiveConnectionSupport is incorrectly read and used for the cell scoped WebSphere built-in relational resource adapter.
Problem conclusion
The WebSphere J2C component has been corrected to properly initialize the resource workload routing capability. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.4.
