APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • After a clone migration, the cluster.xml files in the cloned
    cell will still have the old cell's server uniqueId's. This
    will cause the generated plugin-cfg.xml file to in turn have
    incorrect cloneID's in it.
    

Local fix

  • Manually update the uniqueId field in the cluster.xml member
    element so that it matches the uniqueId field in the server.xml
    for each server in the cluster.
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Incorrect server uniqueId in cluster    *
    *                      after z/OS clone migration              *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    When doing a clone migration on z/OS a new uniqueId was
    generated for the servers in their server configuration, but
    the uniqueId for the servers in the cluster configuration was
    migrated from the old environment. This results in the
    plugin creating the wrong value for the JSESSIONID.
    

Problem conclusion

  • When using clone migration on z/OS, the migration code is
    updated to create a new uniqueId for cluster members in the
    cluster configuration and set the corresponding uniqueId for
    the cluster member servers in their server configuration.
    
    The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix pack
    9.0.5.4.
