IC89105: MESSAGE HANDLING FOR MAX CONNECTIONS IS NOT CLEAR

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• We have noticed that there are some concurrent deploy tests with
  only one eTPC server where it will call concurrent number of the
  tpc createVolume command and it will fail with the following
  return code:
  
  CMMVC7017E Login has failed because the maximum number of
  concurrent CLI sessions has been reached
  
  It seems like for each createVolume command the TPC server will
  create an ssh session to the V7000.  In this particular
  concurrent test the tester is calling createVolume at least 30
  times and it will hit this SVC limitation.
  
  The information from the SVC message, CMMVC7017E, should be
  surfaced in the TPC message for the call that failed.
  

Local fix

• none - on failure, investigate TPC logs further

Problem conclusion

• The defect should contain the return code 10003 and status
  -100 for the subjob if we get the ssh limit session. Please be
  aware that TPC returns a TPCAsyncResult for the entire job
  that contains sub-results for each sub-job run. In this case,
  is you want to see the 10003 return code you will need to
  check the subjob results.
  
  The fix for this APAR is targeted for the following
  maintenance package:
