Error description

  • A JMS application publishes messages to a WebSphere
    Application Server v7.0 Service Integration Bus Topic.
    Messages on the topicspace start building up when the
    number of transactions per second is increased. Even
    when the transactions per second is ramped down, the
    messages are consumed very slowly.
    Messages reporting Hung threads and HMGR0152W messages are
    written to the SystemOut.log:
    
    WSVR0605W: Thread "SIBFAPInboundThreadPool : 3" (00000067)
    has been active for 618131 milliseconds and may be hung.
    There is/are 1 thread(s) in total in the server that may
    be hung.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  Users of the default messaging provider     *
    *                  for IBM WebSphere Application Server        *
    *                  version 7.0,8.0 and 8.5                     *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Messages stuck on Messaging engine      *
    *                      (ME) hosting publication point          *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    This problem is seen in a publish subscribe environment. The
    messages were not flowing from the source ME (the point where
    the messages were published) to the destination ME (the point
    where the durable subscription home was defined). This was
    caused due to a gap in ticks( internal state of the ME) at the
    source ME (where the messages are stuck). The messages remain
    in pending acknowledgment mode. This problem comes because
    the source ME has just now discovered a subscriber is added at
    the destination ME for first time. On the discovery of this,
    at the source ME a gap is formed in tick range ( internal book
    keeping data structure which is used to transfer messages
    between MEs).
    

Problem conclusion

  • The code has been modified to fill the gap in the tick range.
    This APAR will ensure that message flow between MEs .
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 7.0.0.27 ,8.0.0.7 and 8.5.0.2. Please refer to the
