APAR status

Closed as new function.

Error description

A problem is seen where a JACL script that updates an EAR
file hangs when the Deployment Manager it is connected to
is stopped. The wsadmin JACL script never completes.
 -
We will introduce a new system property in wsadmin
"com.ibm.ws.scripting.apptimeout" for customers to configure the
application install or update timeout value.

Customer can specify the system property in a text file with -p
<propfile> or specify it in wsadmin command with -javaoption
<java command> option.

such as:

1. Create a new property or text file, i.e. timeout.prop
 com.ibm.ws.scripting.apptimeout=1800      (10 mins in
milliseconds)

wsadmin.bat -conntype RMI -port 2801 -p c:/timout.prop -f
c:/bcgapplication.jacl

or

2. Specify the system property in wsadmin command with
-javaoption

wsadmin.bat -conntype RMI -port 2801 -javaoption
"-Dcom.ibm.ws.scripting.apptimeout=1800" -f
c:/bcgapplication.jacl

Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of WebSphere Application Server   *
*                  V6.1 and V7.0                               *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The script (update application) hangs   *
*                      until wsadmin timeout (24 hours) when   *
*                      dmgr process is terminated abnormally.  *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
To workaround the problem, the wsadmin introduces a new system
problem com.ibm.ws.scripting.apptimeout for you to configure
the application timeout (the default is 24 hours).  You can
set the application timeout value for test purpose.

Problem conclusion

As stated, the wsadmin introduces a new system property to
allow user to change the application max wait time (the default
is 24 hours) to a shorter timeout value if any server process
is terminated manually and the wsadmin (script) will fail by
timeout and throw ConnectionNotAvailableException.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fixpacks 6.1.0.23 and 7.0.0.3.  Please refer to the Recommended
