APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

When utilizing the cacheinstances.properties file to configure
Dynacache, the replication type for DistributedMap objects is
not set correctly thus preventing use of Dynacache.  You might
see an exception similar to the following:

named services/cache/instance_1 can not be initialized because
of error

When using the cacheinstances.properties file to configure
Dynacache object cache instances, the replication type for
DistributedMap objects is not set correctly thus preventing use
of Dynacache.  You might see an exception similar to the
following:

CacheInstance E   DYNA1003E: WebSphere Dynamic Cache instance
named services/cache/instance_1 can not be initialized because
of error
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: sharingPolicy:-1

Problem conclusion

Dynacache code was changed to read and set the correct
replication type from the cacheinstances.properties file.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fixpack 6.1.0.23 and 7.0.0.1.  Please refer to the Recommended
