Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

The configDropins/defaults directory contents are shared
between controllers in a collective.  This makes it an
inappropriate location for the config file generated by the
--createConfigFile option of the collective create and
collective replicate commands.  The collective utility does
not prevent this location from being specified.

****************************************************************
The configDropins/defaults directory contents are shared between
controllers in a collective.  This makes it an inappropriate
location for the config file generated by the --createConfigFile
option of the collective create and collective replicate
commands.  The collective utility does not prevent this location
from being specified.

Problem conclusion

The collective utility now prevents a file in the the
configDropins/defaults directory from being specified for the
config file location in the collective create and collective
replicate commands.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix
