Error description

  • The application config element in server.xml provides an
    autoStart attribute that determines whether the application
    is autoStarted whenever the application server becomes aware
    of the application.  This could be during startup, but it
    could also happen dynamically after the server is already
    running.  The current description of the autoStart attribute
    implies that autoStart is only relevant during server
    startup, which is misleading.

    misleading.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The description of the autoStart attribute on the application
    config element has been changed to remove text that refers to
    server start.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for
    inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.5.  Please refer to the Recommended
