PM18252: ENHANCE PACOPTIMZER SO THAT IT CAN RESUME A PREVIOUS RUN

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Currently, PACOptimizer can be configured to run for a certain
  amount of time. However, if it is executed the next time, it
  starts its work at the beginning. This APAR introduces
  an option to make PACOptimizer resume where it finished last
  time. When PACOptimizer has finished with a timeout, it prints
  out the ObjectID of the resource where optimization stopped.
  To enable this feature, in the WAS Admin Console add the
  following configuration property to the Resource Environment
  Provider "WP AccessControlService":
  
  accessControlConfig.optimizationResumeResources"
  
  The value is a comma-separated list of ObjectIDs. These
  ObjectIDs will be used as resume points - in other words:
  all resources that have been handled in previous run will be
  skipped.
