    This requirement has been evaluated. We have no plans to make the 5-minute CMAS timer tunable. After the five minutes has expired, CPSM will nevertheless react to changes in the connection state as demonstrated by the fact the connection when set manually acquired allowed completion of the processing. So the problem remains as to why the connection never came out of obtaining state.
    It is most probably a timing issue and should it recoccur we would recommend capturing a dump and opening a new PMR quoting this RFE.
