  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  The Knowledge Center states on the following URI:
  
  http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSFKSJ_8.0.0/com.ibm.
  mq.dev.doc/q031840_.htm
  
  that there are two Java/JMS OSGi bundles, called:
  
  com.ibm.mq.osgi.allclient_.jar
  com.ibm.mq.osgi.allclientprereqs_.jar
  
  
  However the installation packages for the 4 UNIX platforms:
  
    AIX
    Linux
    Solaris
    HP-UX
  
  did not include the second of these files, the file:
  
  com.ibm.mq.osgi.allclientprereqs_.jar
  
  
  This missing OSGi bundle contains the the prerequisite software
  for the allclient OSGi bundle, and includes:
  
      fscontext.jar
      jms.jar
      providerutil.jar
  

Problem conclusion

• The UNIX installation packages have been updated such that this
  missing OSGi allclient prereqs bundle is now included.
  
  The file has also been included in the fix packs, which means
  that if you apply maintenance which contains this APAR, this
  missing OSGi bundle will be added to your installation.
