PK00478: RESOLVE HOSTNAME IF ORB RETURNS HOST (IP) ADRRESS ON ORB.GETHOSTNAME() | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
APAR status Closed as program error. Error description Error description: WLM prefer local routing is not working for a client. The reason the WLM prefer local is not working properly is that the WLM code requires that the ORB.getLocalHost() return the physical host name of a machine, not the IP address, to determine if a client is on the same host as a "local" server (or servers). In this case the IP address is returned, breaking WLM prefer local routingLocal fix Test Fix sent to clientProblem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: WebSphere Application Server users of WLM, * * WorkloadManagement, or Clustering * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The call to the ORB.getHostName() * * can in some isntances return the * * IP address, and not the physical * * host name. The host name is needed * * by WLM for prefer local to work * * properly * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** ORB.getHostName() can return IP address, not physical host name, breaking WLM's prefer local routingProblem conclusion Added logic to, when/if the ORB.getHostName(), returns an IP address, to resolve that IP address into the host name in order that WLM's prefer local routing works properly This fix is available as an iFix only.Temporary fix Comments
