XCOM Data Transport

Issue/Introduction

XCOM SSL transfers failing on iSeries when several submitted simultaneously to another iSeries machine.
The problem occurs when multiple transfers are initiated simultaneously e.g. > 10. 
If submit a small number of transfers they are successful.

Sending machine job log shows error:
Txpi  303: SSL Socket send error return value = 72
Receiving machine job log shows error:
Txpi  304: SSL Socket receive error return value = 73

Environment

XCOM™ Data Transport® for AS/400 i5/OS

Cause

When starting the listener, the value of the "TCP/IP send check frequency" parameter SENDCHKFRQ had been set to 0 when normally it is set to the default value of 50.

Resolution

On receiving machine the XCOM TCP/IP listener (in this using 8044 as a secure port) has been started with:
MAXCLIENTS = 10
MAXBACKLOG = 310

Set the MAXCLIENTS to the maximum number of concurrent transfers that need to be run and then set MAXBACKLOG to MAXCLIENTS + 3. So the latter criteria is satisfied.

Restarting the listener using a SENDCHKFRQ value of 50 resolved the problem.
