Host Integration Server 2004 does not return a negative response when an IPDLC connection is inactivated

Article ID: 873399

Article Last Modified on 12/4/2007



APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004 Standard Edition





SYMPTOMS

When an IP data link connection (IPDLC) connection is inactivated while the host sends a bind request, Microsoft Host Integration Server 2004 does not return negative response and the host waits indefinitely.

CAUSE

When an IPDLC connection is inactivated while the host sends a bind request, it is still passed to the Host Integration Server service to open an incoming connection. The Host Integration Server service does not respond to the eXchange Identifier (XID). Therefore, the IPDLC does not respond to the bind request.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

MORE INFORMATION

For an inactive connection, the Host Integration Server 2.1 node actually sends an Open (LINK) request message to the DLC to accept incoming connections. However, the Open (LINK) request message then drops any XIDs that the Open (LINK) request message receives on that connection. The IPDLC link service always expects a response to its XIDs because no network connection is involved, but the IPDLC link service does not receive a response.

The Host Integration Server 2.1 node responds to the XID3 with an error if the originator is an IPDLC link service. Additionally, the following error is logged from the IPDLC link service in the application event log:
