Local fix

This is not recommended, but one could remove the tranlog and
partner log files to bypass the problem.

****************************************************************
A WTRN0047W is logged due to a NullPointerException that
occurs during the recovery of a transaction from the
WebSphere Application Server transaction log files.
The error occurs when Oracle returns a XAER_RMFAIL during the
transaction recovery process while the transaction manager
tries to re-establish a connection with the Oracle Database.

Problem conclusion

The problem occurs because the purge policy is not initialized
in the program code in the transaction recovery flow. This
results in it being null and causing a
java.lang.NullPointerException.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 6.0.2.37, 6.1.0.27 and 7.0.0.7.  Please refer to the
