Abstract
Environment with multiple network interfaces, with the
com.ibm.CORBA.ServerSocketQueueDepth ORB property specified, WebSphere
would bind to only one network interface.
Download Description
PK00066 resolves the following problem:
ERROR DESCRIPTION:
When using WebSphere Application Server in an environment with multiple
network interfaces, if the com.ibm.CORBA.ServerSocketQueueDepth property
was specified by the administrator, WebSphere would bind to only one
network interface instead of all
PROBLEM SUMMARY:
USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server users who have more than one
network interface card in their server and wish to set the
ServerSocketQueueDepth.
PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When using Application Server with multiple TCPIP
adapters, if ServerSocketQueueDepth is specified, Application Server will
bind to only one adapter.
RECOMMENDATION:
When using WebSphere Application Server in an environment with multiple
network interfaces, if the
com.ibm.CORBA.ServerSocketQueueDepth ORB property is specified, you will
see that Application Server will bind to only one network interface
instead of all.
PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
The code path that was taken when ServerSocketQueueDepth was specified was
slightly different than when it wasn't. The code was changed so that the
ServerSocketQueueDepth property is checked up-front, setting it to the
default value if needed. Then the same code path is now used for the for
the connections and ServerSocketQueueDepth is always passed in on the
connection call.
