PQ47777: ADMIN SERVER DOC ON PAGE 40 REGARDING ADMIN FAILOVER. ADMIN SERVFAILOVER DOES NOT APPEAR TO WORK


APAR

APAR status
Closed as fixed if next.

Error description
ON PAGE 40 IN REDBOOK SG24-6153-00, ADMINISTRATIVE SERVERS CAN
PARTICIPATE IN WORKLOAD MANAGEMENT, HOWEVER I SPOKE WITH JOHN K.
IN ROCHESTER AND THAT FUNTIONALITY IS NOT THERE.  I RECREATED BY
SETTING UP AN OSEREMOTE/MODEL AND CLONE ENVIRONMENT, AND SIMPLY
PULLED THE PLUG ON ONE OF THE SERVER TO SIMULATE A DOWN SYSTEM.,
THE APPLICATION DID NOT FAILOVER, THE ADMIN CONSOLE DID NOT SHOW
 A FAILOVER AND THE ADMIN GUI HUNG.  I WAITED FOR 30 MINUTES TO
SEE IF CONSOLE OR ADMIN SERVER WOULD RECOVER.  HAD TO REBOOT
BOTH SYSTEMS. THIS DEFECT SHOULD SERVE AS A DOCS ISSUE AND ADMIN
Local fix
Problem summary
Automatic console failover was never a planned or implemented
feature. The client would need to know the alternate bootstrap
host/port etc. to even try to reconnect with the other
AdminServer making this a manual procedure. To implement this,
WebSphere would need to add the infrastucture to administer
such a feature (entering and storing alternate AdmSrv's to
connect to) plus the failover ability to dynamically connect
to an alternative server.
.
This APAR is being closed FIN. It will be fixed in the next
release of WAS, if any.
Problem conclusion
Temporary fix
