APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When user configures a shared library at cell scope by PFBC, it
  is not configured if another shared library with the same name
  already exists at lower scope. In this case, the lower
  definition will be overwritten unexpectedly.
  

Local fix

• use admin console or wsadmin script instead of PFBC
  

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server V8.0 users of Properties File Based  *
  *                  Configuration (PFBC) commands.              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Library object at cluster scope is      *
  *                      overwritten by PFBC when a user         *
  *                      attempts to create another Library      *
  *                      object at cell scope with the same      *
  *                      name.                                   *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:  Install a WebSphere Application Server      *
  *                  fix pack containing this APAR.              *
  ****************************************************************
  Library object at cluster scope is overwritten by PFBC when a
  user attempts to create another Library object at cell scope
  with the same name. The Library object at cell scoped is not
  created or modified in this case.
  

Problem conclusion

• The command implementation is modified so that the cell and
  cluster scope Library objects with the same name are
  created and modified correctly with
  AdminConfigProperties.applyConfigProperties() command.
  
  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
