****************************************************************
The problem happens when an application has one of it's
modules deloyed to multiple targets.  For example.  A .ear has
a .war module and that .war is deployed to both an application
server cluster and to an http server.  The code did
not take this multiple deployment case into account.

Problem conclusion

The problem was fixed by taking all the module deployment
variations into account and adjusting the logic to handle
them.  This was needed since there were more variations then
originally thought.

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