| Error description
IBMer has identified a problem in the WebSphere Orb
(iwsorb.jar) for version 4.0.2 and beyond.
The following ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException occurs
intermittenly. This problem occurs when WebSphere is
communicating with a Java application using CORBA, and the
Java Application is using Java 1.4. Local fix
Suggested fix is to update the ObjectKey.getServerUUID()
function: function: Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server users of *
* WebSphere to communicate with other non *
* IBM Java ORB. *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When WebSphere receives a shorter *
* object key generated by other non IBM *
* ORB, it throws java.lang. *
* ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION: *
****************************************************************
In a typical topology, WebSphere is acting as a client, which
uses IBM ORB to communicates with other non IBM ORB vendor
(could be Java or C++). When WebSphere ORB receives an Object
Key generated from the non IBM ORB, it examines both of its
size and content. If the Object key is shorter than it expects
(16 bytes), WebSphere ORB would throw the following
exception.

(IpMultiPartyCallControlManagerHelper.java:73) Problem conclusion
When WebSphere ORB finds the Object Key is shorter than 16
bytes, it will fill up the remaining bytes with the value of
zeros and maintain all Object Keys, generated by either IBM ORB
or non IBM ORB, as 16 bytes long. Temporary fixComments
