Error description

These do not seem to harm the server or any applications; there
seems to be no adverse effect at all.
Secondary Symptoms:
CredentialsImpl.refreshServerCred:  Unable to refresh the
 server's credentials, reset to minimum  expiration time.
Local fix
There is no workaround available for this problem.
Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server security        *
*                 users using the LTPA authentication          *
*                 mechanism.                                   *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The server credential cannot be         *
*                      refreshed.                              *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The server credential is refreshed at the security cache
timeout interval.  The LTPA token within the credential
is used to perform the operation.  If the LTPA token in the
credential is expired at the time the credential refresh is
attempted, the refresh operation will fail.  the following
error will be logged multiple times; JSAS0070E.
Problem conclusion
An LTPA credential is no longer used to refresh the server
credential.  Instead,  a BasicAuth credential (containing a
user ID and password) is used.
Temporary fix
