Error description

  • The anonymous folder are created in
<profileRoot>/<profileName>/wstemp/anonymous<ID>. The wstemp
folder holds configuration changes made by e.g. user for a
specific session, but should be removed after the session is
closed. If the session is NOT discarded automatically, then the
size of the wstemp folder will grow and you run into
unpredictable situation (e.g. eventually it can cause an OOM
(out of memory) condition of dmgr or server).
(see:
https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/node/1080939?lang=en)

Local fix
