Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server V7.0 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: During transaction recovery a WMQ * * ExceptionDeliveryThread is leaked for * * each WMQ resource that needs recovery * * by the WebSphere Transaction Manager. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** During transaction recovery of an WMQ resource a MQExceptionDelivery Thread is started and never cleaned up. If transaction recovery fails for any reason then recovery is reattempted for all resources regardless as to whether these resources sucessfully recovered or not. This will potentially lead to many MQExceptionDeliveryThreads being created and causing an OutOfMemoryError. This leak is present on all platforms but due to the way transaction recovery occurs on zOS then it is more likely to reach an OutOfMemoryError condition on this platform.
Problem conclusion
This APAR fixes the problem by closing the MQ Connection once the MQ resource has finished recovery. APAR PM55965 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service Level (Fix Pack) 7.0.0.23 of WebSphere Application Server V7.0. Please refer to URL: //www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=404&uid=swg27006970 for Fix Pack availability.
