Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

The customer observed the following behavior.

1. edition 01 is running on dynamic cluster members.
2. base edition is installed and uninstalled.
3. rollout from 01 to 02 fails (WPVR0011E) due to the
unexpected WPVR0041W.

In this customer's case, the trigger of the issue is the step
2.

Local fix

Skip the trigger operation

or

By restarting the cluster members between the step 2 and 3, we
can run the rollout successfully.

****************************************************************
Given an application edition in service (that is, the active
edition,) when an administrator uninstalls another edition of
the same application -- for example, uninstalls the base
edition -- then the application server (cluster member) will
unexpectedly deactivate the Application MBean for the active
edition rather than the J2EEApplication MBean of the
uninstalled edition.  Subsequently, when the administrator
rolls out another edition of the application, the Edition
Manager considers the active edition to be stopped
(WPVR0041W,) due to the lack of an Application MBean, and
attempts to start the new, active application edition on the
target application server (cluster member.)  The new
application edition fails to start, however, because the
previous active edition is still in service, and ultimately,
the rollout fails with error WPVR0011E.
The root cause of this problem is that, when the administrator
uninstalls another edition of the active application, the
target Application Server (cluster member) unexpectedly
deactivates the Application MBean for the active edition in
service rather than the J2EEApplication MBean for the
uninstalled edition.

Problem conclusion

Apply APAR PI63963 to ensure the Application Server
(cluster member) deactives the corresponding J2EEApplication
MBean when uninstalling an application edition.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 8.5.5.11 and 9.0.0.1.  Please refer to the
