Error description
If the kib catalog files are out of synchronization between a hot-standby pair of TEMS, the stage II sychronization process will fail only to be restarted 5 minutes later again and again. CPU processor utilization is increased substantially as is storage consumption. Final result is a TEMS crash. RECREATE INSTRUCTIONS: - Using a backlevel copy of the CCT table at the primary and a current copy at the secondary follow these steps (a pre-IZ51285 copy of the ib catalog and post-IZ51285 copy could be used). - Shutdown the secondary Hub. - Modify or add a takeaction for a situation. - Restart the secondary. You should see increased processor utilization at both the primary and secondary TEMS. You should also see "missing column" messages issued at the HUB. If you stay up long enough a crash will occur.
Local fix
Make certain the kib.cat files are in sync between your TEMS hot-standby pairs.
Problem summary
On the management server, high CPU and a possible server crash in a Hot Standby Environment. During processing in a Hot Standby environment, a backlevel IB catalog file causes key processes to fail. Missing columns in the IB catalog causes this high CPU in the management server and leads to a possible crash.
Problem conclusion
Tolerate a 202 return code and continue the key processing so it will complete. Write a log record indicating the failing application table. The fix for this APAR is included in the following maintenance vehicle: | fix pack | 6.2.1-TIV-ITM-FP0003
Temporary fix
Make certain that the IB catalog file (kib.cat) is current on all management servers.
