IJ56940: SOFTWARERM CORE DUMP

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• An initialization mistake in a constructor for
  IBM.SoftwareRM may lead to a core dump after another
  underlying error occurs, such as a registry issue.
  
  This is a rare case, and one stack example (from a Linux
  system) is:
  
  (gdb) where
  #0  0x000075d33c0cb338 in rsct_rmf4v::RMSchedule::
  ~RMSchedule (this=0x3900000037, __in_chrg=<optimized
  out>) at /project/sprelgod/build/rgod2537a/src/rsct/
  SDK/rmf/RMSchedule.C:246
  #1  0x000000000040c052 in SoftwareRccp::SoftwareRccp
  (this=0x1d83fe0, pClass=0x422586 "IBM.Software",
  eclass=RM_OBJECT_BASIC, pRmcp=0x1d88120)
      at /project/sprelgod/build/rgod2537a/src/rsct/rm/
  SoftwareRM/Software.C:689
  #2  0x000000000040817d in main () at /project/sprelgod/
  build/rgod2537a/src/rsct/rm/SoftwareRM/
  IBM.SoftwareRMd.C:181
  
  If this occurs in the field, the subsystem will restart
  and continue normally.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• SoftwareRM has a chance of core dumping as a result of other
  internal errors occurring first.
  

Problem conclusion

• Reason for core dump has been addressed.
