Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server 3.5 users   *
*                 with large topologies.                       *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The Admin Console may fail to display   *
*                      the topology view, and the message      *
*                      "Unable to obtain root instance" may    *
*                      be displayed.                           *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
Under conditions of heavy load or memory use, code in the
WebSphere admin server may fail to process topology requests
correctly.  This can cause clients (both the gui admin client
and wscp) to report a "failure to obtain root instance."
Problem conclusion
Admin server code has been changed so that it correctly invokes
"narrow" in all cases.
Temporary fix
A test fix was provided to the customer on Saturday morning
