HI Everyone,
we Have IIB V9.0.0.2 on Linux x86-46, we have configured an ODBC connection to Oracle 11g server, and currently we are facing a weird behavior.

We have set the Max Connection Age to 60 seconds (default), but we can see that the IIB doesnt purge/close those idle connections, and they stay there for hours.

Shouldnt the IIB kill the idle connections, which stay idle for more than 60 seconds? Or my understanding is wrong?
I was searching for V9 fixes but couldn't find any fix related to this issue!

Did anyone face this issue before?
The easy way is to ask the DBA to create a profile for the IIB and to purge the idle connections, but I dont think this is smart.

Thanks,

Why do you want the connections to close?
Is it causing you a problem somewhere?

AFAIK, IIB keeps the connections to the DB open so that when the time comes to access the DB it can resuse those connections rather than going through the whole connect/authenticate process which slows things down.

There might be some internal to IBM reason for keeping them open and as such, even a PMR won't give you that information.

Because we are getting the below error:
Child SQL exception
08001
-1
[unixODBC][IBM][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver][Oracle]TNS-12516: TNS:listener could not find available handler with matching protocol stack [unixODBC][IBM][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver][Oracle]TNS-12516: TNS:listener could not find available handler with matching protocol stack

And when I spoke to the DBA, he shows me that the IIB has more than 300 idle/inactive session not terminated.

Also, We have found that even when there are inactive connections, the iib initiate new connections instead of reusing the inactive sessions.

It would have been nice to have included that bit of information in the original post.

We have opened a PMR with IBM to check this issue, another piece of information that might be useful, when I asked the DBA to kill the inactive sessions, which had been inactive for 5 minutes, this error started to appear in our logs:
Child SQL exception
HY000
1012
[unixODBC][IBM][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver][Oracle]ORA-01012: not logged on [unixODBC][IBM][ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol driver][Oracle]ORA-01012: not logged on

Hi eammnsh

We are facing the same problem, do you have any update of your PMR from IBM?

Thank you

After all this time, I would imagine so. IBM's not that slow at responding, even to non-priority PMRs. I should point out the OP's not posted in over a year.

I would also put it to you that you don't have the same problem, because you're not on the same level of IIB as the OP. If you are, I've solved your problem - any fix supplied as part of this PMR would have been rolled into the product by now so update to the latest maintenance and see if the problem persists.

If so, open a new thread here (referencing this if you're so inclined) and a new PMR.

Apply the latest fixpack to that version and see if it still happens.
