APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
Affected are WSP and MPGW gateways with HTTP or HTTPS backend on all supported releases. When a corrupted backend system allows connection, but fails to send any response back, the transaction might never time out, consuming resources permanently.
Local fix
Problem summary
Affected are DataPower MPGW and WSP services with HTTP or HTTPS backend. If the HTTP backend is degraded in such a way that it does accept a TCP connection, never responds with any data and never closes the connection, the transaction might hang for indefinite time.
Problem conclusion
The fix is available in 7.1.0.18, 7.2.0.15, 7.5.0.9, 7.5.1.8, 7.5.2.8 and 7.6.0.0. For a list of the latest fix packs available, please see: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21237631
