    This APAR addresses the following bugs:
    1. PFA_SMF_ARRIVAL_RATE_CHECK failed to issue the 208E exception
    2. The alignment in the EWV report log of the WLM Health values
    was off.
    3. The alignment in the JSU exception report for the WLM Health
    values was off.
    4. Incorrect checking in the MergeStorage Java code.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Updated AIRHMMAP to correct the SMF exception failure, updated
    AIRHMPJP to correct the report alignment for the JSU check,
    updated AIRHMMAW to correct the EWV report log alignment
    problem, and updated MergeStorage.java to correct the checking
    causing JSU not to model correctly.
