  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: productUtility validate outputs errors  *
  *                      multiple times                          *

  ****************************************************************
  As problem files are detected they are added to an output
  buffer. When all files associated with a feature have been
  checked any problems are reported by displaying the output
  buffer. This buffer is not reset between each feature causing
  the buffer to grow with each subsequent feature that is
  validated.
  
  If files associated with multiple features have
  become corrupt then the productInfo validate command will output
  for each successive feature all the validation problems
  discovered so far rather than the errors associated with just
  that feature.
  

Problem conclusion

• The output buffer is reset after reporting on each individual
  feature ensuring the problems are only output at the appropriate
  point.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for
  inclusion in fix pack 8.5.5.4.  Please refer to the Recommended
