You have not specified open connections from what to what. I am assuming you mean the connection between the AR Server to the database.
Yes there used to be a bug a few versions ago (very early versions of 7.0 and some of 6.x and some earlier ones too I think) with what used to be known as the EIE then (now AIE) where after a scheduled run of a data exchange to MS-SQL, the EIE engine would not close that connections and the next time the same schedule was to run, it would open another connection. BMC did fix that bug. Is this something similar? If so the work around until they fixed whatever it was that I had used was to stop the service from the command line using a windows scheduler (sort of a cron job), after the schedule was estimated to have finished it daily run. This killed the connection it opened. And then using another schedule, I started that service minutes before it was to run another schedule. You are on 76.04 SP4, and I do not think that EIE's successor AIE has a similar problem. So you would need to be more specific as to when you get these connections open, and when they fail to close if it is the connection to the database you are inferring.
