Local fix

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server Batch Function                       *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Four FFDC files are generated when      *
  *                      running the WSGrid application and      *
  *                      the IIOP port is not the default port   *
  *                      of 2804.                                *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  Users should supply the IIOP port of the Scheduler server if it
  uses an IIOP port other than the default of 2804.
  

Problem conclusion

• A new parameter (-IIOP <server>:<port>) was added to the
  WSGrid command line.  This allows users who are not on the
  default IIOP port of 2804 to specify their IIOP port and avoid
  the 4 FFDC errors.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.6.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
