    ****************************************************************
    WebSphere Application Server may fail when performing a
    rollback operation on zOS using IBM installer. The failure may
    indicate that it failed to extract zip because login.info
    already exists.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The fix is to add logic to delete login.info after rollback to
    8.5.0.0. The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in fix
    pack 8.5.5.20. For more information, see 'Recommended Updates
