APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The postinstaller's logging creates a log called postinstall.log
  for each of PreConfigActions, WebSphere, PostConfigActions and
  any other products that make use of the postinstaller. Some
  parts of the log are concatenating so that the WebSphere
  postinstall.log contains some info from PreConfigActions and
  the PostConfigActions log contains information from both
  PreConfigActions and WebSphere. These logs should be completely
  separate from each other and not overlap.

  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server V8.0                                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Multiple postinstaller logs contain     *
  *                      duplicate information.                  *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The postinstaller should create separate, distinct logs for
  each product that runs config actions, however, the logs are
  being appended to such that the information for one product
  displays in several logs.
  

Problem conclusion

• A code change was made to ensure that the logging information
  displays in only the appropriate logs.
  
  APAR PM49011 is currently targeted for inclusion in
  Service Level (Fix Pack) 8.0.0.2 of WebSphere Application
  Server V8.0.
