Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server 8.5.5. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Application distribution failed for an * * application update when an application * * MBean method call failed on z/OS. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Application distribution failed for an application update on z/OS with the following scenario: óÔÇö ¥performed update to a group of running applications óÔÇö ¥saved the configuration óÔÇö ¥stopped the server where the applications were running wh the application distribution was still going on The server stop killed the servant region of the server but not the application MBeans, which resided in the control region. As a result, when an application MBean was queried, the MBean belonging to the application was returned. However, a subsequent call to its method failed with javax.management.InstanceNotFoundException on the servant.
Problem conclusion
The code is fixed to catch the exception and allow application expansion to continue. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.8. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
