    The root cause of IMS Tools Knowledge Base error messages
    could not be properly determined. This resulted from security
    access failure messages being suppressed and undocumented
    security profiles being checked.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

  • The security checks performed by the Repository server are now
    in sync with those documented in the Configuration Guide.
    Security access failure WTOs are no longer suppressed.
