PQ68219, 4.0.2, 4.0.3, 4.0.4, 4.0.5: PMICache causes security failure w/PMIClien



APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Problem Summary With security enabled, it is not
possible for a PMI client to access two nodes that
are not in the same domain.  When the login info is
updated for the second node, the creation of the
PmiClient object fails when a listNodes contacts the
first node. Authentication then fails because the
login info has changed.
Local fix
Temp fix has been provided by PMI developer. This APAR is opened
for getting offical EFix.

* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When running PmiClient in multiple      *
*                      WebSphere domains, security             *
*                      authentication failed                   *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The DataCache used by PmiClient cached all the nodes in
multiple WebSphere domains. Security authentication failed
in multiple domains because PMI attempted to talk to nodes in
a different domain.
Problem conclusion
DataCache will not cache nodes in other WebSphere domains.
Therefore, each PmiClient object will only communicate with
the nodes in the domain in which it is connected.
