PM15353: TEMPLATE SERVER WITH CAPITAL LETTERS, BUT WITH SAME NAME OF THE ORIGINAL SERVER CAUSES ISSUES WHILE SELECTING THE JDBC PROVIDERS

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

When a server eg: testIvt is created and a jdbc resource is
created and a server template is created for that server

now when another server is created using the template of
server testIvt but with the same name but with capital letters
in AIX / unix system.

When the server scope of the original server is selected under
the JDBC provider server scope.
Instead of the original server testIvt, the server created from
the template with the same name but capital letters get selected

i.e when testIvt is selected in the server scope, testIVT gets
selected. testIVT only gets selected each time iresspective of
whether testIvt or testIVT is selected in the scope.

Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
*                  Server V6.1 and V7.0 that create servers    *
*                  with names that only differ by              *
*                  capitalization.                             *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The incorrect scope is chosen when      *
*                      the scopes only differ by               *
*                      capitalization.                         *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:  Do not create servers/nodes with names      *
*                  that differ only by capitalization.  You    *
*                  cannot have serversand nodes with the same  *
*                  name on Microsoft Windows, and if a node is *
*                  ever created on a Microsoft Windows         *
*                  machine, there will be more problems        *
*                  because Microsoft Windows ignores case.     *
****************************************************************
The console code was ignoring case when comparing scopes and
finding the wrong one.

Problem conclusion

We no longer ignore case when comparing scopes.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix packs 6.1.0.33 and 7.0.0.13.  Please refer to the
