Abstract: IllegalStateException's during commit processing after a DuplicateKeyException

Description/symptom of problem: 

An error condition in the container is triggered where upon after encountering an EJB createFailure (in
this case a DuplicateKeyException) the container removes the wrong Bean instance from the 
EJBcache (so happens to be the same beanId). Subsequently the instance which was removed 
fails commit processing because the instance enlisted in the transaction does not match up 
with the instance in the EJBcache.

The following exception is found in the AppServer trace log

Directions to apply efix:
1) Create "efix" directory to store the efix jar file(s):
   AIX: /usr/WebSphere/AppServer/efix
   Solaris/Linux: /opt/WebSphere/AppServer/efix
   Windows: c:\WebSphere\AppServer\efix
2) Copy PQ51806.jar to the directory
3) Add the directory/jar file to the beginning of the admin server's classpath
  in admin.config:
com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminserver.classpath=C:/WebSphere/AppServer/efix/PQ51806.jar...


4) Stop and restart the Admin Server ***any processes that must be restarted***
