![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description When running the BBOXMIG3 job, the following problems may be encountered: . Job BBOXMIG3 fails in step 7 with: *IEFACTRT* J=NBTUVP81,S=(007, .MIGRAT ),RCODE=2048 IEF196I *IEFACTRT* J=NBTUVP81,S=(007, .MIGRAT ),RCODE=2048 . In the 'migrate3.out' file, you see java stack traces, for java.io.FileNotFoundException: for the following 9 files: . which are symbolic links in directory: $WAS_HOME/DeploymentManager/properties/version/ (where $WAS_HOME example is "/WebSphere/V5R0M0") . to $INSTALL_ROOT/properties/version/ (where $INSTALL_ROOT is "/usr/lpp/zWebSphere/V5R0M0") . The link exists in the $WAS_HOME../.. but the actual files DO NOT exist in the $INSTALL_ROOT../.. . All 9 files have the same EDC5129I message after them: (EDC5129I No such file or directory.) . 9 files are: prereq.cddoc.client.component prereq.cddoc.component prereq.cddoc.nd.component prereq.cts.component prereq.ihs.component prereq.messaging.component prereq.mqfixpack.component prereq.samp.webservices.component websphere.jar.component . The actual shell script that fails is "WASPreUpgrade.sh"Local fix The local fix is to manually go into the $WAS_HOME directory $WAS_HOME/DeploymentManager/properties/version/ directory and DELETE the symbolic link for each of the 9 files listed. This is not a problem, since the symbolic link points to a non-existent file in the $INSTALL_ROOT/properties/version/ directory.Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V5.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The contents of $WAS_HOME/properties/ * * version/ does not match the contents * * of the SMP/E installation root after * * applying service. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The contents of $WAS_HOME/properties/version/ does not match the contents of the SMP/e installation root after applying service. The post installer is supposed to synchronize the symbolic links between the $WAS_HOME version directory and the SMP/E installation root every time post installer service is applied.Problem conclusion Restructure the symbolic link synchronization code in the post installer support. APAR PQ91502 is associated with SERVICE LEVEL W502014 of WebSphere Application Server V5.0 for z/OS.Temporary fix Comments
