  ****************************************************************
  A time limit is given to resolve bundle dependencies in the
  OSGi framework. On complex, or slow systems, the application's
  bundles may not be resolved before the limit is reaced.
  

Problem conclusion

• The OSGi framework in use by EBA applications has been updated
  to allow a timeout value in milliseconds to be specified as a
  JVM option, for example:
  
  -Dosgi.usesTimeout=600000
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.1.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
