PH65315: z/OS Connect creates unnecessary empty resources/imsmobile-config directories when starting.

APAR status

• Closed as unreproducible in next release.

Error description

• The fix for APAR PH52321 was not complete. It prevented the
  creation of the unnecessary .xml files but continued to create
  resources/imsmobile-config/connections, interactions, services
  and tran_messages directories which are also not needed.

Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All users of z/OS Connect V3.0               *

  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: z/OS Connect creates unnecessary empty  *
  *                      resources/imsmobile-config directories  *
  *                      when starting.                          *
  ****************************************************************
  The fix for APAR PH52321 correctly prevented the creation of
  resources/imsmobile-config/services/ims-services.xml
  resources/imsmobile-config/interactions/ims-interactions.xml
  resources/imsmobile-config/connections/ims-connections.xml
  ims-admin-services.xml but did not prevent the creation of an
  empty resources/imsmobile-config directory and sub-directories.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• z/OS Connect has been changed so the resources/imsmobile-config
  directory and sub-directories will not be created when the
  server is started.
  
  Any existing configuration that was created before this change
  will not be affected.
  
  The fix for this APAR is expected to be delivered by the PTF for
  z/OS Connect V3.0.91.0 (PH65316).
