Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server * * Java Batch * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Java Batch job submission fails when * * dynamic provisioning is enabled * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When dynamic provisioning ("Start components as needed") is enabled on a WebSphere application server, component loading is deferred from startup to runtime. In a Java Batch environment, an endpoint server may fail to submit a job when dynamic provisioning is enabled, and the following message may be found in the server output: EndpointComponentImpl.initializePGC() return exception...PGC is not initialized. This occurs because not all of the Batch runtime's dependencies are correctly specified, so a necessary service may not have been initialized in time to process the job submit request.
Problem conclusion
The dependencies of the Batch runtime have been updated to inclu all necessary services. This will ensure these services are load in time to prevent this issue. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix packs 8.5.5.13 and 9.0.0.6, and Compute Grid 8.0.0.6.
