UPDATE CICS EMBEDDED WEBSPHERE LIBERTY TO FIXPACK 20.0.0.9
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICS users. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: This APAR upgrades the embedded * * WebSphere Liberty to version 20.0.0.9. * **************************************************************** The embedded CICS TS Liberty JVM server requires an upgrade of WebSphere Liberty to version 20.0.0.9.
Problem conclusion
CICS TS has been updated to use a Liberty JVM server that is based on WebSphere Liberty version 20.0.0.9. CICS TS 5.3 and higher have also been updated such that CICS will configure Liberty with an additional default setting of <applicationManager autoExpand="true"/> which will be documented in the CICS TS Knowledge Centers. This setting causes application file archives to be automatically expanded into the ${server.config.dir}/apps directory on first use. This avoids expansion of file archives into the Liberty work area on server startup, reducing zFS file I/O and making more efficient use of the Java shared class cache. If you wish to override this setting and switch it off, then you should place the XML element: <applicationManager autoExpand="false"/> in your server.xml file. IBM is required to provide you with certain notices and other information regarding third party components, included by this APAR and obtained as part of IBM WebSphere Liberty 20.0.0.9.
