PROBLEM SUMMARY
re_startNode fails on a German profile name

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
The cause of the problem is that we have places in our code where we do something like this:                                
                                                                
   if (System.getProperty("file.encoding").equals("Cp1252")) ...
                                                                
On some systems, we are seeing that the "Cp1252" is being reported as "CP1252".                                           
                                                                
So the required code changes have been made and which performs case-insensitive comparison                                     
                                                                
The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in fixpack V6.0.2.5.
