Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application Server Edge       *

  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The CBR load balancer advisors use      *
  *                      the cluster port instead of mapport     *
  *                      to monitor servers                      *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  When using CBR, if servers are defined using mapport, the
  advisors will monitor the health using the port number defined
  under the cluster instead of the mapport used with the server
  definition.
  

Problem conclusion

• Code was modified to use the mapport on the advisors. This
  affects CBR only. The Load Balancer for IPv4 accepts a mapport
  on the server definition but it did not exhibit this problem.
  The Load Balanacer for IPv4 and IPv6 does not accept mapport
  on the server definitions.
