Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  Users of WebSphere Extended Deployment      *
  *                  Compute Grid 8.0 and the batch function of  *
  *                  WebSphere Application Server                *
  *                  who use the parallel job manager function.  *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Subjob job logs and subjob properties   *
  *                      incorrectly logged to SystemOut.        *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  A separate job log is created for each "subjob" used by the
  runtime in parallel execution of jobs and steps by the Parallel
  Job Manager (PJM) component.   These "subjob" job logs were
  incorrectly logged
  into SystemOut on the server executing the top-level job, (on
  the main, parent
  thread).  Also, the subjob Properties set on the Parameters
  object returned
  by the user's Parameterizer implementation are likewise
  incorrectly logged to SystemOut.
  

Problem conclusion

• The subjob joblogs and the values of the subjob Properties are
  now only logged
  within the job log of the top-level job.
  
  APAR PM99245 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
  Level (Fix Pack) 8.0.0.4 of WebSphere Compute Grid 8.0.
