    ****************************************************************
    When an OSGi application is started, the Aries integration
    layer waited for up to ten seconds for required services, such
    as the Bundle Framework Manager, to start.  In some
    environments it is possible that these services will not
    become available within the time limit.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The default time limit to wait for required services to become
    available during OSGi application startup was modified to a
    default of 60 seconds.
    In addition a new JVM System Property,
    com.ibm.websphere.AriesApplicationEventHandler.trackerTimeout
    , can be used to specify the timeout value in milliseconds.
    
    The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix pack
    9.0.5.8. For more information, see 'Recommended Updates for
