User connections do not spread across JCPs in 21.0

Products

• CA Automic Workload Automation - Automation Engine
• CA Automic One Automation

Issue/Introduction

We have multiple JCPs on our AE server, However, It appears that all the users are connected to a single JCP. The user connections are not spread across all JCPs.

Environment

Release: 21.x

Component: Automation Engine

Cause

Known defect.

AWI picks the first listed JCP from the uc4config.xml always.

Resolution

Workaround:

A load-balancer can be used with round robin (like haproxy) and point to different AWI's with different uc4config.xml jcp order.

Solution:

This is a known issue and is planned to be  fixed in 21.0.8 (Version may change depending on internal testing).

Additional Information

This will be fixed with AE-31850 in 21.0.8
