APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In the case of there is a HTTP proxy between RIT and RTCP, and
  the proxy is set in Library Manager, RIT does not really use the
  proxy for accessing the RTCP. Although RIT showed it can reach
  RTCP by displaying a green check mark, but failed to read out
  domain information from RTCP.
  
  When recording database traffics via a JDBC proxy, RIT gives
  below exception:
