IJ44324: A HUB TEMS FAILS TO RESPOND TO REQUESTS TO START OR STOP SITUATIONS; SITUATIONS FAIL TO START ON AN FTO HUB AFTER IT IS PROMOTED.
Error description: The Hub's EIB log is the device used by the Sitmon component of an RTEMS to keep the local database in sync with the Hub's. The EIB log is also used to send commands to the Sitmon component at any TEMS, including the Hub's. If no EIB log updates are received by Sitmon for a prolonged period, Sitmon assumes that the connection to the Hub has been lost. It therefore recreates the EIB log request to the Hub and initiates another database
resynchronisation. The problem is that after dropping the EIB Log request, the Hub's Sitmon was not recreating the request. As a result, the Hub's Sitmon would not 'hear' requests to stop or start Situations or to promote itself to the Primary Hub.

Question:For my Cloud Pak for Automation (CP4A) deployment using Operator, I have configured data under the"initialize_configuration"
section of the custom resource to create and initialize a domain and object store.
The object store is created but there is no CodeModules folder under the root folder.
The /CodeModules folder is needed in order to successfully run the IBM Enterprise Records (IER) Configure Workflows task..

[New IBM Tivoli Monitoring Related Section: Java Expired Certificates]
Resigning Tivoli Enterprise Portal (TEP) client JAR file certificates.
Summary: Java certificates for the IBM Tivoli Monitoring portal client jar files have an expiry date. It's also possible to
encounter certificate issues (such as expiration or low encryption levels) at any time when you add other application
support packages to your environment. Adding support packages can be performed manually or automatically via the Self Describing Agent functionality.
When that happens, JAR files need to be resigned. You do not have to wait for the certificates to expire, you can have
your JAR files updated with the latest certificate at any time.

[Preparing customer firewalls and proxies for the upcoming infrastructure changes]
New network connections between your machine and IBM servers.
Abstract: IBM is planning to implement infrastructure improvements to Call Home, Testcase Data Exchange and Secure File Transfer on 4th June 2022.
Both Public and Internal IP addresses will change for the IBM servers that electronically exchange test cases, configuration files, traces, dumps and other diagnostic information with customers.
Customers will experience uninterrupted service due to the change in IP addresses in June.
Both the current IP addresses and the new IP addresses will be accepted initially.
From August 31st 2022 only the new IP addresses will be accepted and so it is advised that new firewall rules and proxy updates are completed before that date.
