Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Extended Deployment Compute * * Grid 8.x and WebSphere Application Server * * 8.5.5.x batch function users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Transactional work in the * * destroyJobStep() method does not get * * rolled back after an exception is * * thrown. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** Transactional work in the destroyJobStep() method does not get rolled back after an uncaught exception is thrown. The batch container does not acknowledge the exception and the job may end normally
Problem conclusion
The batch container no longer ignores uncaught exceptions from the destroyJobStep() method of a batch step. Instead the exception is acknowledged by the batch container and the transactional work is rolled back. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in WebSphere Compute Grid 8.0.0.4 and also in WebSphere Application Server 8.5.5.2.
