Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V8.0 & V7.0 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Added ServerIOTimeOutRetry logic to * * the plugin. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** A new custom property is available for the webserver plugin. ServerIOTimeoutRetry Specifies a limit for the number of times the HTTP plugin retries a request that has timed out due to ServerIOTimeout. The default value, -1, indicates that no additional limits apply to the number of retries thus the request may be retried up to as many servers exist on the cluster or until a response is received. A 0 value indicates there are no retries. Retries are always limited by the number of servers in the cluster. Important: This directive does not apply to connection failures or timeouts due to the HTTP plug-in ConnectTimeout. Setting the property within the Administrative Console: Click Servers > WebSphere application servers > server_name, next, click the "+" next to Administration within the Server Infrastructure section, and then click Custom properties. Enter in "ServerIOTimeoutRetry" for the name and a numeric value for the number of retries for the application server. ??????NOTE - Any server may be chosen within the cluster this value. If multiple servers have this value set, the property take the value from the last found.
Problem conclusion
The ServerIOTimeoutRetry can now be controlled. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.0.0.5 & 7.0.0.27. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
