Error description
When trying to use the fail-back function in the LS related to replication and the LS going to the replication RM when the primary RM is not working, the LS Monitor is incorrectly resetting the Icmstresourcemgr RMFLAGS to indicate the RM or RMs in question are no available. This happens regardless of them working properly. The LS monitor is incorrectly doing a heartbeat request with a call ---etoa() to convert the encoded AuthBasic data to ASCII when it already is. This need to be fixed.
Local fix
Do not run the LS Monitor and manually reset the RMflags to a value of 0.
