Hi Team,

We have cluster Production environment and recently We have done MQ setup like, we will connect to other MQ server with below mq connection parameter and we created MQ listener and notification for this connection. Same setup is done in both production nodes.
The issue is now, MQ channel connections are not closing in MQ server, where the MQ server which are connecting.

Now they have reporting the issue, because the MQ channel sessions are not closing at their end, which have been opened in their system.

Could you please let me know, if there are parameter settings to resolve this issue.

MQ Adapter Version:
Description WebSphere MQ Adapter
Adapter Version 6.5
Updates MQS_6.5_Fix38

We have created Websphere MQ Transactional connection to get the messages from the queue.

Hi.

please check if it is possible for you to set minimum pool size to 0.

In this case, as soon as there is no more traffic on the connections they will be closed after expiration without starting new ones.
New ones will be createed upon new traffic then.
Otherwise each instance in the cluster pertains at least one connection. When the last one gets closed, the adapter immediately creates a new one. When the last connection in the pool goes into a stale state (still existing, but no longer working), you will have to restart the instance to get fresh connections available.

Holger
