Error description

  • Queue service interval high events are getting generated more
    frequently after maintenance was applied.
    
    If multiple getters are checking for service interval high
    events at the same time, it is possible for the sequence of
    processing on two threads to result in a negative service
    interval being calculated. Because a negative interval is not
    expected, it is interpreted as a very large interval which
    exceeds the service interval threshold defined on the queue, so
    a service interval high event is issued.

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Frequent queue service interval high    *
    *                      events may be produced when multiple    *
    *                      applications are serving messages on    *
    *                      the same queue.                         *
    ****************************************************************
    With performance events enabled, and an appropriate high service
    interval set on the queue. When multiple applications are
    servicing messages on the queue, if multiple gets occur within a
    short period of time, CSQMIAGM may wait for the object latch for
    the queue. However this may result in the calculation for
    elapsed time to return a negative value into an unsigned value.
    This results in the service interval high performance events
    being produced more frequently than expected.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The processing has been altered to correctly calculate the time
    used prior to issuing the events to correctly deal with multiple
    getters waiting on the same object latch.
