PI60292: THE ADMIN SCRIPT OFFERED AFTER CREATING A MAILSESSION VIA THE ADMINISTRATIVE CONSOLE IS INCOMPLETE

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

When a user creates a new MailSession via the Admin Console and
clicks the "View administrative scripting command for last
action" link, the generated script is incomplete.
Specifically, the script is missing the "mailTransportProtocol"
attribute.  Attempting to use the script as-is in wsadmin
results in binding issues at startup for that MailSession.

Instead, the script should include the "mailTransportProtocol"
attribute with a value set to the config id of the
protocolProviders config object that equates to the protocol
the user chose in the Admin Consolel panel.

Local fix

Users can manually add the "mailTransportProtocol" attribute
and value to the wsadmin MailSession create command.  The
attribute would look like this if you wanted to use the
protocol called "builtin_smtp":

[mailTransportProtocol
"(cells/myCell/nodes/myNode/servers/server1|resources.xml#builti
n_smtp)"]

****************************************************************
If a user wants to creates a mail session and looks at the
command assistance string provided by the console, the
'mailTransportProtocol' attribute is not
included. This attribute should be included in the command
assistance string because it is a parameter that can be modified
by the user on the console. The command
assistance string should always reflect what paramaters were
modified on the console.

Problem conclusion

The 'mailTransportProtocol' is now displayed on the command
assistance string. This way a user can copy it and use it to
call the command in wsadmin.
