APAR Error Description / Circumvention

-----------------------------------------------
iSCSI Attached servers will sometimes fail to active due to the
iSCSI HBA failing. Looking at the STRSST Lic Log's a grouping of
errors will be seen:

ISCSI HOST ADAPTER 5000 6512
ISCSI HOST ADAPTER 5000 2100
DAMAGE SET 0300 0210

CORRECTION FOR APAR MA41615 :
-----------------------------
The iSCSI HBA LIC code was failing due to trying to access a
flight recorder memory that has been released.  LIC Code was
updated to prevent future failures in the according LIC module.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR MA41615 :
--------------------------------
None.
