Abstract:  Migration fails with an IO exception that lists a WCCMDocument id as the cause of the failure.

Description/symptom of problem:  
PK60965 resolves the following problem:

ERROR DESCRIPTION:                                              
WASPostUpgrade fails with an exception like                     
to the model.java.io.IOException:                               
[com.ibm.wsspi.migration.document.wccm.WCCMDocument@31253125]   
                                                                
Investigating the trace reveals that migration cannot open the  
multibroker.xml file                                            

LOCAL FIX:                                                      

PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
WebSphere Application Server version 6.1
users.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
Migration fails with an IO exception
that lists a WCCMDocument id as the
cause of the failure.

RECOMMENDATION:
None

Migration opens the multibroker.xml file to resolve port
conflicts, but this action blocks the normal migration
of this file and causes PostUpgrade to fail.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
This fix will correctly close the file handle for the           
multibroker.xml so that migration can complete normally.        
                                                                
The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in    
cumulative fixpack 6.1.0.17.
