Spectrum OneClick slow when creating multiple connections to a SharedMediaLink model

Products

• CA Spectrum

Issue/Introduction

User is the Web Service API (Rest) to create hundreds of connections to a SharedMediaLink (SML) model. When doing this, OneClick becomes unresponsive for a while.

Environment

Release : Any

Component : Spectrum Modeling

Cause

Creating hundreds of connections at one time is causing a latency in work threads. These threads are being queued and are eventually run.

Resolution

When dealing with this number of connections to a SML we have to wait for all work threads to finish for the OC responsiveness to go back to normal levels.

During the connection procedure (where the associations are created between devices and SMLs through the REST API) one can expect a certain delay in the response times of the requests as the number of connections rise.

Additional Information

NOTE: There is no controlled limit on the maximum number of devices connected to a single SML model.
