Error description
A Gateway daemon configured to use the dropworking and idletimeout parameters might not free ConnectionManager threads and IPIC sessions when a client connection is timed out. The value of the ECI timeout parameter does not affect the release of the resources.
Local fix
Remove the dropworking parameter to prevent the purge of in-use connections
