APAR Error Description / Circumvention

-------------------------------------------------
When a storage is linked to multiple NWSDs and then added to the
administration domain of a cluster, the storage on the receiving
node is not useable.  The end result is that a customer may
witness a MSGCPFAA04 RC4 when attempting to perform ADDCADMRE on
a MRE type of *NWSD or the storage on the receiving node cannot
be seen with WRKNWSSTG.

CORRECTION FOR APAR 'SE47291' :
-------------------------------
Code has been modified to copy the additional information from
the source node which contains the list of NWSD names when the
disk is linked to multiple NWSDs.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR 'SE47291' :
----------------------------------
None.

None.




Special Instructions

(1.) Before applying (or removing) this PTF the following must be done:
(a.) You must use the End Job (ENDJOB) command to end the QPRFSYNCH
job running in the QSYSWRK subsystem, and use the OPTION(*IMMED).
For instance:
ENDJOB (<jobnumber>/QSYS/QPRFSYNCH) OPTION(*IMMED)
where jobnumber is found by entering the Work Active Job
(WRKACTJOB) command, pressing F11 twice, and seing the
job number in the number column:
WRKACTJOB JOB(QPRFSYNCH)
(b.)  If you are running IBM Performance Tools, Performance Data
Collection must be ended.
For instance:
- Enter GO PERFORM command
- Select Option 2 (Collect performance data) from the menu.
If it is "Started", select Option 3 (End Performance
Collection) from the menu, and use the default options of
the End Performance Collection (ENDPFRCOL) command.
If the status is "Stopped", no actions are needed.
- Exit from the menu, using F3.
(c.)  If you have any cluster administrative domain jobs active on
your system, you must end the cluster administrative domain
CRG jobs on each cluster node, using the Change Cluster
Recovery (CHGCLURCY) command from one node in your cluster.
For instance:
CHGCLURCY CLUSTER(<cluster>) CRG(<admin_domain>) NODE(*ALL)
ACTION(*END)
where <cluster> is the name of your cluster, <admin_domain>
is the name of a cluster administrative domain, and <node> is
the cluster node name for the system.
You should call this command once for each cluster
administrative domain in your cluster.
(2.) Apply (or remove) the PTF
(3.) After the PTF has been applied (or removed) do the following:
(a.)  Sign off the IBM i console and sign on
(b.)  Start the QPRFSYNCH job running in the QSYSWRK subsystem
using this command:
CALL PGM(QSYS/QFPAPRFJ) PARM('START')
(c.)  If you wish to start IBM Performance Tools:
- Enter GO PERFORM command
- Select Option 2 (Collect performance data) from the menu.
- Select Option 1 (Start Performance Collection) from the
menu and press enter.
- Exit from the menu, using F3.
(d.)  If you wish to restart the cluster administrative domain CRG
jobs on each node in your cluster, perform this command from
one node in your cluster:
CHGCLURCY CLUSTER(<cluster>) CRG(<admin_domain>) NODE(<node>)
ACTION(*STRCRGJOB)

THIS PTF CAN BE APPLIED IMMEDIATE OR DELAYED.
