IT38841: SLOW WORKLOAD MANAGEMENT STATISTICS PROCESSING CAN LEAD TO ABNORMAL MEMORY GROWTH

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Message flow statistics are collected when using workload
  management features. These statistics are transferred from
  message flows to the workload management system using an in
  memory queue. A performance issue with this queue can cause
  statistics data to not be drained from the queue correctly
  causing abnormal memory growth. This presents as a growth in a
  number of eyecatchers including DBLS, DBNS and DFNT.
  

Local fix

• N/A
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of workload management features in IBM App Connect
  Enterprise v11 and v12.
  
  
  Platforms affected:

  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  Message flow statistics are collected when using workload
  management features. These statistics are transferred from
  message flows to the workload management system using an in
  memory queue. A performance issue with this queue can cause
  statistics data to not be drained from the queue correctly, thus
  resulting in abnormal memory growth. This presents as a growth
  in a number of eyecatchers including DBLS, DBNS and DFNT.
  

Problem conclusion

• The performance issue has been removed, so workload management
  statistics should be processed without delay and without build
  up.
