PQ59259: FOLLOW ON TO PQ50243, FIX NEEDED TO IGNORE THE HOST NAMES THAT ARE NOT RESOLVED WHEN ENTRY IN RULES.PROPERTIES IS INCORRECT.

APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
when configuring OSE Remote in a multi-node cloned
environment.  Per the OSE Remote configuration instructions they
manually edited the queues.properties file on the HTTP server
machine and added the required entries, including the ose.srvgrp
ibmoselink.clonex.host entries. They mistyped one of these host
entries so that it was unable to be resolved throught DNS.  When
they attempted to start their http server they received gethostb
error messages in the netscape log file, and they were unable to
server any WebSphere requests, even to the clones whos
host names were resolvable.
Local fix
Follow steps in PQ50243 to find missed typed information in the
rules.properties file and change.

*                      queues.properties file causes plugin    *

* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
Misspelled hostname in queues.properties file causes plugin
to fail initialization because the hostname cannot be
resolved.  Customer requests that the instead of failing the
plugin should log an error and continue processing the valid
clones that are specified.
Problem conclusion
If hostnames cannot be resolved an error is logged in the
plugin trace but processing will continue.  The
misspelled/invalid clone will be ignored when serving requests.
