![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description When using the WebSphere IPCS commands, to format out the time stamps associated with the worker threads, the 'time and date' is incorrect. The most noticable point is that the date is years in the future, and the time portion is also incorrect. The output of command: IP VERBX BBORDATA 'ASID(xxx) TCB(yyyyy)' command, which is used to display the information associated with a WebSphere 'worker thread' is where this problem was seen.Local fix Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V6.1 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When using the WebSphere IPCS * * commands (VERBX BBORDATA) to format * * the timestamps associated with worker * * threads, the time and date are * * incorrect.

In many cases, the date is many years in the future (e.g. 2042). The timestamps themselves in the dump are correct. The problem is only in how they are formatted to make them human-readable.Problem conclusion The timestamps are formatted incorrectly due to an error in the updates to IPCS processing code to support 64-bit dumps. The code has been updated to process the timestamps correctly. APAR PK39304 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service Level (Fix Pack) 6.1.0.8 of WebSphere Application Server V6.1 for z/OS.Temporary fix Comments
