Error description

  • In 10.5.0.3 a new feature was added to the API Plan which would
    allow plan-scoped scale assembly limits; but a misconfiguration
    of the limits could result in the gateway restarting.
    e.g.
    
    rate-limit-definition x01
     type count
     ...
    exit
    
    api-plan x01
     assembly-burst-limit-def
       definition x01
    

Local fix

  • Verify that the Rate Limit Definition matches the Plan rate
    limit type.
    

Problem summary

  • Datapower may restart if the user sets the wrong type of
    RateLimitDefinition in the plan-scoped scale assembly limits to
    the API Plan.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

  • To correct the wrong RateLimitDefinition type.
