  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
  TEP Client support for Oracle Java 7 u51.
  Oracle Java 7 u51 provides additional security updates
  that require that all JAR files used in applet or Java Web
  Start deployments have the permissions attribute set in
  the JAR manifest file. This requirement will affect the
  TEP client, both browser and Java Web Start modes. Without
  compliance with this requirement, the TEP client may not
  start after downloading. This issue does not affect other
  releases or levels of Java.
  
  PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
  The supplied application support for OMEGAMON XE for DB2
  PE/PM has been rebuilt to comply with the new security
  requirements of Oracle Java 7 u51.
