APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The REMOVE_PARTNER_LOG_ENTRY process allows the removal of partners from the transaction service partner logs only if re-creation an XAResource for the partner fails. In some cases it may be required to remove a partner for which the XAResource can be re-created, but the XAResource.recover() can not succeed.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of IBM WebSphere Application * * Server * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The REMOVE_PARTNER_LOG_ENTRY process * * does not remove partners for which an * * XAResource can be created. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The REMOVE_PARTNER_LOG_ENTRY process allows the removal of partners from the transaction service partner logs only if re-creation of an XAResource for the partner fails. In some cases it may be required to remove a partner for which the XAResource can be re-created, but the XAResource.recover() can not succeed. It is also desirable to be able to remove partners without attempting to create the XAResource first.
Problem conclusion
The point at which the REMOVE_PARTNER_LOG_ENTRY process will remove a partner specified in the list can now be configured by setting a JVM System Property. The JVM system property name is com.ibm.ws.Transaction.removePartnerLogEntryMode, the default value is 0. The value of the new property and the conditions under which a resource specified in the REMOVE_PARTNER_LOG_ENTRY list is removed are listed below: 0 : if an XAResource for the partner cannot be created (this is the existing behaviour). 1 : if either an XAResource for the partner cannot be created or the invocation of the XAResource.recover method fails. 2 : unconditional, the partner is removed before attempting to recreate the XAResource. The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix packs 8.5.5.18 and 9.0.5.5.
