Error description

  • When you create a generic server with no executable name or
    start command, and only an executable target specified, you see
    some errors in the nodeagent log. The following messages are
    logged in the nodeagent:

    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The selectable bundle activation framework allows for
    multiple, selectable versions of some packages to be used
    within the WebSphere Application Server product.  This
    processing involves inspection of server metadata.  When a
    user-created generic server is being utilized, the processing
    step views its lack of a server object in its configuration to
    be an error, which results in a WSVR0634E message and an
    exception (usually logged to FFDC).
    Note that there is no functional issue with this, as
    selectable bundle configuration is not utilized in generic
    servers; the exception and message are purely cosmetic.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Logic was added to suppress this message and exception when a
    generic server is processed.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 8.0.0.11 and 8.5.5.6.  Please refer to the
