4.0.5: WebSphere Application Server Version 4.0 Fix Pack 5 (Version 4.0.5)
System Management Component Cumulative Fix for 4.0.2/4.0.3/4.0.4 /4.0.5



APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
PROBLEM: 'BeanIDxxxx" files getting created in the 'bin'
directory due to stateful session beans in the admin server.
.
The customer would like to specify a different directory for
these files so that they do not clutter up- and in the
worst case, actually use up the complete disk space- the
file system on which the 'bin' directory is located.
.
PQ53566 already does this for WAS 3.5. Need to port it to WAS
4.0.
Local fix
Stop admin server; delete the files from the bin directory;
restart admin server.

****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WebSphere is incorrectly setting the    *
*                      stateful EJB's passivation directory    *
*                      for admin server beans in admin.config  *

Websphere is putting temp bean files in washome\bin directory
for the stateful EJB.
Problem conclusion
Add an entry in the admin.config file:

com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminserver.containerStatefulBeanPassivationDir=<
directory_name>

   where <directory_name> is the path and directory for stateful
 bean passivation.
   files.  Create a directory with this name if it does not
already exist.

Stop and restart the Admin Server.
