Checking IP address used in a web service

[alejandro_gmez]

Hi gurus:

I have a web service that works. The problems appears when the external system change the IP associated to the endpoint of the web service. The SAP PI server retains the old IP address and continues sending requests to it.

I have configured the JVM to not cache the IP addresses. (TTL=0), I think.

How could I monitor the IP address that are used to access to the endpoint of the web service? In the SXI_Monitor transaction I can't see it.

Thanks in advance and regards,

Alejandro Gómez.

Hi Alejandro,

Have you checked this http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73EhP1/helpdata/en/1b/1a7ea92aa74be2a042470b412ef60f/content.htm?frame...?

Also, you should take into account where is really cached the URL in your infraestructure, perhaps it could not be a PI problem.

Hi,

For this kind of issues you should always maintain host name instead of IP address.

Maintaining host name is the recommended way.

Hi Manigandan:

I am using the hot name, no the IP address.

The issue appeas when The IP address associated to the host name changes: IP server no detects that change.

Thanks,

Hi,

Check with Basis team or IT team, where the NDS entry is made for that IP address and host name.

Hi again:

At operating system level, the server obtains the correct IP address associated with the endpoint using DNS, but the J2EE no detects the change.

How could I monitor the IP address used in a request to a web service?

Thanks,

Alejandro.
