APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Sometimes a V5.x resources.xml file may contain an invalid
deploymentDescriptor element nested within a builtin_rra block,
such as the following:

  <resources.j2c:J2CResourceAdapter xmi:id="builtin_rra"
  name="WebSphere Relational Resource Adapter"
  ...
    <deploymentDescriptor xmi:id="Connector_1054132487569"
    displayName="WS_RdbResourceAdapter"
    vendorName="IBM" specVersion="1.5" eisType="RRA"
    version="6.0">
    ...
    </deploymentDescriptor>
  ...
  </resources.j2c:J2CResourceAdapter>



Such an element in a V5.1 resources.xml is invalid. If this
file is present in a V6.0 dmgr, after a mixed node
synchronization, the entire builtin_rra block is stripped out.
This resources.xm file with the missing builtin_rra definition
can lead to further problems.

*                      5.1 node agent may remove builtin_rra   *

* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
Node synchronization removes the following block from version
5.1 resources.xml file:

<resources.j2c:J2CResourceAdapter xmi:id="builtin_rra"
name="WebSphere Relational Resource Adapter"
description="Built-in Relational Resource Adapter for Container
Managed Persistence"
archivePath="${WAS_LIBS_DIR}/rsadapter.rar">

//Factories and propertySet definitions

</resources.j2c:J2CResourceAdapter>

This may lead to other problems. For instance if the user
tries to migrate version 5.1 node with the bad
resources.xml file - the BBOWMG3F migration job will fail during
the PREUPGRD step with the following error:

MIGR0300I: The migration function is starting to save the
existing
WebSphere Application Server environment.
MIGR0302I: The existing files are being saved.

org.eclipse.emf.ecore.xmi.UnresolvedReferenceException:
Unresolved reference 'builtin_rra'.
(file:/ssw/zWebSphere/w51cfg/AppServer/config/cells/w51/
nodes/w51n/resources.xml, 23, 366)
...
Problem conclusion
Node synchronization will not remove builtin_rra reference
from resources.xml.

APAR PK39862 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
Level (Fix Pack) 6.0.2.21 of WebSphere Application Server V6.0.1
for z/OS.
