PQ88253: WebSphere daemon exits with RC=4 if IFAPRDxx parmlib member does not ENABLE or DISABLE WebSphere for z/OS.

APAR status
Closed as fixed if next.

Error description
During normal shutdown of a WebSphere system, the daemon address
space ends normally, but the job log shows that the return code
is 4. Return code 4 is coming from service IFAEDSTA. RC=4 is
returned because the customer's IFAPRDxx PARMLIB member does
not ENABLE or DISABLE WebSphere for z/OS. IFAPRDxx does
not need to ENABLE or DISABLE WebSphere for z/OS.
The RC=4 is not a problem, and can be ignored.
Local fix
Update the IFAPRDxx PARMLIB member by adding the following:
PRODUCT OWNER('IBM CORP')
        NAME('WAS FOR Z/OS')
        ID(5655-I35)
        VERSION(5) RELEASE(0) MOD(0)
        FEATURENAME('WAS FOR Z/OS')
        STATE(ENABLED)
