APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
In a clustered environment, there is the possibility of subsequent REST requests being made to a different node before the previously cached ActivityToken is invalidated. Due to the lack of invalidation, the request will run with the user Id associated to the activity ID in that nodes memory, which might be different if the activity id was associated to a new ID on another node in the cluster. This can produce undesired behavior with REST requests.
Local fix

JSESSIONID cookie is generated and returned to the client. The JSESSIONID will then be used to achieve session affinity. Non-browser clients may require code changes to consume and provide the JSESSIONID with subsequent requests.
