These fields default to "*" if not set in the adminconsole. These fields may only contain "*" or a dotted decimal IP address in the form www.xxx.yyy.zzz where www, xxx, yyy and zzz are the decimal values 0-255. These fields may not contain IP names of any sort. The infocenter should be updated to correct this documentation error. When an IP name is specified then the control region ends abnormally during initialization with minor code C9C21152.Local fix Ensure that ORB_LISTENER_ADDRESS and ORB_SSL_LISTENER_ADDRESS are either set to * (asterisk) or to the dotted decimal IP address of the specific network interface to which the server should be bound.Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V5.0 for z/OS * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The server End Points * * ORB_LISTENER_ADDRESS and * * ORB_SSL_LISTENER_ADDRESS are * * incorrectly documented in the * * InfoCenter. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The server End Points ORB_LISTENER_ADDRESS and ORB_SSL_LISTENER_ADDRESS are incorrectly documented in the InfoCenter.
