SYMPTOMS
LUs that are added to pools by means of the SNA Manager may not be dynamically picked up by clients if the SNA Server configuration file is very large. The following error message is displayed when a client attempts to open a session:
CAUSE
The problem is caused when the dynamic updates time out while they are waiting for a response. This problem can occur when you save a very large SNA Server configuration file (such as Com.cfg) as it will generate a large number of dynamic status updates. This problem occurred on a customer configuration that had 56,000 objects and a Com.cfg file size of 7 MB.
