APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Specific scenario is below:
  
  Created two datasources with the same jndi name(jdbc/<DS
  name>), one in the Cell level and the other in the server
  level.
  In the Tivoli Performance Viewer when chosen to monitor the
  server the following view, no <DS name> datasource is
  present under JDBC Connection Pools > DB2 Universal JDBC Driver
  Provider but you can see a <DS name> datasource under JCA
  Connection Pools > JMS Connection Factories.
  

Local fix

• No work around at this time.

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When two datasources are defined with   *
  *                      the same JNDI name in cell and server   *
  *                      scope, the resource is displayed        *

  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When two datasources are defined with the same JNDI name in
  cell and server scope, the provider name is passed as null for
  the resource when creating PMI data and hence the resource is
  getting displayed under JMS Connection factories
  

Problem conclusion

• When the provider name is available, the provider name is now
  passed for PMI data creation.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.3.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
