Error description

  • z/OS WebSphere V7.x problem with profile creation time the
    wrong hostname is used in serverindex.xml.
    .
    The customer was getting the following error message.
    .
    BBOM0057W DEFAULT VALUE OF ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE
    protocol_iiop_listenIPAddress USED.
    LENGTH MUST NOT EXCEED 15 CHARACTERS.
    .
    The customer response files was correct, but the
    protocol_iiop_listenIPAddress should had been using
    * and not an invalid hostname.
    

Local fix

  • The users can modify the values in serverindex,
    and then run wsc2n.sh from was_home/bin
    (this will regenerate the was.env).

    ****************************************************************
    The zPMT Port Values Assignment panel contains three host
    fields: Node host name, ORB Listener IP address, and HTTP
    Transport IP address.  When creating a management profile, the
    values specified in the ORB Listener IP address and HTTP
    Transport IP address fields do not get substituted into the
    serverindex.xml file. Instead, the value used for the Node host
    name is used throughout.  This can result in the warning
    message:
    
    BBOM0057W DEFAULT VALUE OF
    ENVIRONMENT VARIABLE
    protocol_iiop_listenIPAddress USED.
    LENGTH MUST NOT EXCEED 15 CHARACTERS.
    
    if that host name exceeds 15 characters, as the underlying
    code is expecting either * or a numeric IP address.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The management profile template will be updated so that the
    appropriate hosts values are substituted into the correct
    locations in the serverindex.xml file.
    
    APAR PK81645 is currently targeted for inclusion in
    Service Level (Fix Pack) 7.0.0.4 of WebSphere
    Application Server  for z/OS.
