APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When you try to install a Storage Resource agent on a
  Hewlett-Packard server, the agent installation fails with
  NAD0007I and  java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException errors
  in the Tivoli Storage Productivity Center server log.  This is
  caused by the initial probe that the agent performs, which fails
  on the Hewlett-Packard server.  The failed probe causes the
  installation of the agent to fail.
  
  This problem was introduced with TPC 5.2.5.
