Required migration action for WebSphere Java Batch users

Troubleshooting


Problem

When updating from WebSphere Application Server 8.5.5.0 or 8.5.5.1 to 8.5.5.2, there is a runtime update that requires table changes to the job scheduler database.  This document will detail the required database updates for your platform.

Symptom

A batch job submission without the table updates in place will fail. A job scheduler SQL error for a missing JOBCLASS table will appear in the job scheduler server logs.
