Issue/Introduction

After running AA transactions for a while, timeout errors are encountered when invoking Advanced Authentication APIs. The issue is remediated via restart of Weblogic application server. After running for a while the issue resurfaces again.

In the Webloic Console logs one can see the error below.

Environment

Release : All supported releases of Advanced Authentication

Component : Risk Authentication

Cause

CA Strong Authentication server's DB connections can get  exhausted if not properly configured.

Resolution

Please restart  the AA services and Applications after instating the two changes below:

1. As shown below, please configure CA Strong Authentication server's  database connections by updating the arcotcommon.ini file in <ARCOT_HOME>/conf directory 

MinConnections=16
MaxConnections=64
IncConnections=2
MaxIdleConnections=16

2. Run this SQL Database query such that any lock held on internal device table or user table is released in a timely fashion for optimal CA risk Authentication transaction processing.

update ARRFCONFIGURATION set value=5 where category='GLOBAL' and name='DEVICELOCKEDTIMEDIFF';
update ARRFCONFIGURATION set value=5 where category='GLOBAL' and name='USERLOCKEDTIMEDIFF';

3. Please also ensure tables that grow quickly such as ARRFSYSAUDITLOG table (that are recommended to be trimmed) are not allowed to grow too large.

Additional Information

None.
