Error description

  • After applying UI75828 for PH33137 to upgrade Liberty in CICS
    to 21.0.0.3, when a Liberty JVMSERVER is enabled the following
    warning is written to the JVMLOG file:
    
    [LibertyVersionChecker] @Warning: checkLibertyVersion() -
    Liberty version 21.0.0.3 is higher than the maximum supported
    version of Liberty 20.0.0.12
    
    Liberty starts successfully and this has no runtime impact.
    Use of Liberty 21.0.0.3 is supported with UI75828 applied.  The
    purpose of this APAR is to correct this message.
