Did you log off Windows while WebSphere Event Broker components were active?

On Windows, logging off when WebSphere Event Broker components (a broker, the Configuration Manager, or the User Name Server) are active can cause a problem. You might see messages, including BIP2070, BIP2642, BIP1102, and BIP1103 in the Windows Event log if this is the case.

When you log off, any queue managers that support these WebSphere Event Broker components are stopped unless they are defined to run as Windows services. The components all run as Windows services and remain active, but they find that the queue manager and queue manager objects that are associated with them are no longer available.

  1. If you log off, restart the queue manager that supports the Configuration Manager or the User Name Server, and the component re-establishes the connection to the queue manager.
  2. To avoid this problem, set the queue managers that are used by the broker, Configuration Manager and User Name Server to run as Windows services, so that logging off Windows does not cause this problem.
