    The metadata configured in the admin-metadata.xml for a Liberty
    member in a Docker container never appears in Admin Center or in
    the collective repository.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The Liberty member code that publishes the admin-metadata is
    augmented to detect when it is within a Docker container and
    publish using the correct server tuple which includes, for
    instance, the Docker container name as the server name.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix
    pack 16.0.0.3.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for
