APAR Error Description / Circumvention

-----------------------------------------------
B6005121 0002000D 00007002 when deconfiguring geographic
mirroring immediately after configuration.
1 SRCB6005121
2 SRC0D200061
3 SRC0002000D
4 SRC00007002
5 SRC00000000
6 SRC00001A15

This occurs because the previous configuration action had not
yet completed prior to invocation of a Deconfigure Geographic
Mirroring.  The previous configuration had an asynchronous
action which modified configuration information that the
currently-running Deconfigure process were attempting to use,
thus causing the problem.

CORRECTION FOR APAR MA46295 :
-----------------------------
The system licensed internal code has been changed to delay the
completion of Configure Geographic Mirroring until the
asynchronous rebuild completes.  This will prevent subsequent
configuration changes from executing until the entire
configuration process has completed.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR MA46295 :
--------------------------------
None.
