Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server for z/OS at V8.5                     *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: On z/OS, message ADMD0023I shows the    *
  *                      server token of discovered server.      *
  *                      The UNIX PID of discovered server       *
  *                      is not shown.                           *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  On z/OS, the server token is used by the code to identify the
  server process but the UNIX PID could also be helpful to
  identify the server.
  

Problem conclusion

• Changing the text of an existing message is not done, so a new
  message(ADMD0027I) will be displayed on z/OS with the UNIX PID
  of the discovered server.
