IO21597: TERMINALS HANG AT W008 AFTER OS MIGRATION 14/09/09 PTF PECHANGE

 

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • A terminal Java JVM abended because core.jar was in upper
    case on the M: drive of the controller.  The code used to create
    the preload list file for the JVM that contains core.jar
    (ADXJ2JAR.BLS) did not find core.jar so the preload JVM bundles
    did not include it.  This was reported against core.jar but
    there may be other files that can create problems.
    

Local fix

  • Assuming the core.jar file is the correct file, rename it to
    another filename or extension then rename it back to core.jar
    (lowercase).  For example, change CORE.JAR to CORE1.JAR then
    change CORE.JAR to core.jar.
    

Problem summary

  • Terminals are hanging at W008 after a V6R4 OS migration. The
    cause of the problem is a failure to recognize that the case of
    filenames on the M drive has changed from lower to upper case.
    This was introduced by APAR IO19121 which affected filename case
    handling on the F: drive.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The problem was solved by making filename matching on M: case
    insensitive again while maintaining case sensitive on the F:
    drive.
    

Temporary fix
