  ****************************************************************
  Memory Overload protection (MOP) value cannot be retained after
  server restart. Since some variables are using the Memory
  Overload protection (MOP) value to calculate other
  percentages this will lead to an incorrect calculation and
  further it might lead to uneccessary calls to garbage
  collection (gc) and will increase CPU overhead or other major
  issues.
  

Problem conclusion

• The Memory Overload protection (MOP) value is now initialized
  to the last set value and is now persistent after server
  restart.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.4.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
