APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

When installing an application in wsadmin and specifying target
mappings, the targets will not be processed correctly if the
target string contains a "-" or "+" followed by any of the
characters in the string "WebSphere:", however the strings
"+WebSphere:" and "-WebSphere:" are fine in the target string.

Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  Users of IBM WebSphere Application Server   *
*                  versions 7.0, 8.0 and 8.5.                  *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Using the wsadmin scripting client to   *
*                      install, edit, or update the            *
*                      application's target mappings does      *
*                      not always result in the application    *
*                      being mapped to the new targets if      *
*                      the target mapping string started       *
*                      with a leading "+" or "-".              *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
Using the wsadmin scripting client to install, edit, or update
the application's target mappings does not always result in
the application being mapped to the new targets if the target
mapping string started with a leading "+" or "-". This is
because a cell/node/server/cluster name in the target mapping
string contained a dash ("-") followed by any of the
characters in the string "WebSphere:".
Example failing target string:
+WebSphere:cell=cell1,node=node01,server=server-
e1+WebSphere:cel
l=cell2,node=node01,server=server1
Here server=server-e1 causes the target mapping to map
incorrectly.

Problem conclusion

The logic to parse the server mapping string has been
corrected.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fixpacks 7.0.0.29, 8.0.0.6 and the fix pack following 8.5.0.2.
