IT32046: GATEWAY PEERING MIGHT BECOME STUCK IN PENDING STATE

Fix packs for DataPower Gateway version 2018.4.1

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• DataPower's Gateway Peering set-up might become stuck in a
  pending state indefinitely if the path from the unix domain
  socket (UDS) (used by the monitor/sentinel process) exceeded
  the max value on linux platform (which is 108 characters).
  

Local fix

• You can attempt to shorten the names of the Gateway Peering
  Objects and/or Gateway Service to reduce the total path length
  under that character limit.
  

Problem summary

• API Connect Gateway Service might get stuck in the pending state
  due to the length of internal path for the monitor/sentinel
  process is too long.
  

Problem conclusion

• Fix is available in 2018.4.1.11
