Error description
The health policy log message for garbage collection percentage threshold exceeded is issued as a warning message but without the message id (WXDH6022I). This message should be issued as an informational message and include the already defined message id of WXDH6022I. Furthermore, the WXDH6022I message text must also be enhanced to include the server and node information.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server WAS ND edition- Virtual * * Enterprise/IM Component that use helth * * policies involving garbage collection * * precentage. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When using a health policy to monitor * * garbage collection percentage where the * * threshold exceeds the target, the * * message written to the log does not * * include the message ID of WXDH6022I * * when logged on the process running the * * Health Controller. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When using a health policy to monitor garbage collection percentage with WebSphere Application Server, the message written to the log on the Health Controller process when a policy threshold is exceeded does not include the associated message ID of WXDH6022I. The message is also incorrectly issued as a warning message rather than an information message (as indicated by the message id). The message which does not include the message ID is still valid and can be used to understand the processing of the system but lacks the easy to search message ID of WXDH6022I.
Problem conclusion
The code has been corrected so that when the informational message is written to the log the corresponding message ID is also written to the log. The message text has also been enhanced to specify the server and node that are being monitored which indicated that the threshold has been exceeded and is correctly logged as informational (rather than a warning). The corrected message will appear as follows: WXDH6022I: The current garbage collection percentage of {0} exceeds the threshold of {1} for server {2} on node {3}. The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.13 and 9.0.0.6. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for delivery information: http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=180&uid=swg27004980
Temporary fix
No workaround is available. However the message without the ID still includes the necessary information to indicate the threshold that has been exceeded.
