Error description
some port range maximum connections and divisor values changed in tcptr_aixpert after APAR IV28045 and companions. If tcptr_aixpert was run from an aixpert rule on the system before IV28045, the running tcp_aixpert after IV28045 will fail to change the maximum connections and divisor for these ports. Thus further check of the aixpert settings using aixpert -cp will fail with : tcptr_aixpert.sh: TCP TR controls are not set correctly
Local fix
after VI28045 has been applied manually run : tcptr -delete 1 12 256 1 tcptr -delete 13 13 256 1 tcptr -delete 14 20 256 1 tcptr -delete 21 21 256 1 tcptr -delete 22 25 256 1 tcptr -delete 26 36 256 1 tcptr -delete 37 37 256 1 tcptr -delete 38 110 512 1 tcptr -delete 111 111 256 1 tcptr -delete 112 9089 512 1 tcptr -delete 9090 9090 10 3 tcptr -delete 9091 65535 512 1 Then reapply the rule.
