Local fix

• Resolve the issue causing NoRouteToHostException.
  

Problem summary

• When the naming context lookup fails abruptly, ORB tries
  infinitely leading to numerous instances of
  NoRouteToHostException being logged.
  

Problem conclusion

• ORB code has been modified to avoid multiple iterations only one
  instance of NoRouteToHostException will be logged.
  .
  This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
