Error description
A timing issue can cause a Servers Stats TCA to hang when the Manager is shutdown. The Manager will now inform the Servers that it is shutting down in an attempt to resolve the timing issue. The Servers will now ignore the invalid GFCB causing the U3099. This also fixes a problem where a Standby Server can attempt to take-over while the main Server is still active.
