    ****************************************************************
    VMM does not honor the searchTimeOut property in login. This
    could result in a hang.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Honor the searchTimeOut property for VMM login API as it is
    used for search API call. The searchTimeOut property resides
    in the ldapRegistry configuration. Now this property will be
    used while performing the JNDI call to the LDAP server.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 8.5.5.3. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page
