Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server * * Configuration Migration Toolkit * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Additional LDAP servers specified for * * global security are removed by * * migration-- * * only one LDAP server remains. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** After migrating to an affected release, the LDAP configuration in security.xml contains only one <hosts> tag, where before there were multiple. No errors will be reported, and login to the admin console might even succeed, but the customer will notice the failover configuration is missing upon inspecting the file. This occurs because Migration contains a method to determine whether two <hosts> entries are identical that always returns true. So each successive entry is compared against the last, claims to be the same entry, and replaces the former one. This collapses the list down to just its last entry.
Problem conclusion
Migration was adjusted to compare the values of the attributes o the <hosts> tag to determine whether they are identical. Non- matching <hosts> are added to the hosts list in the new configuration without overwriting it. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 9.0.0.7 and 8.5.5.14.
