Problem conclusion

• The error occurs because of a temporary shortage of available
  tcp/ip ports for outbound connection when Data Server tries to
  connect through SOAP to Device Server to extract
  performance data.
  The fix contained in this APAR is to wait a few seconds and
  then retry the connection.
  
  APAR is targeted for the following maintenance
  packages:
