PQ55597: COULD NOT CREATE PMI SERVICE WITH WSCP ON WAS AE 4.0.1 SUN SOLARIS

APAR status
Closed as program error.

Error description
Solaris 5.8, was 40ae buiil a0131.07, admin.config maps the
default lsdPort to com.ibm.ejs.s.adminServer.lsdPort=10003
Problem:
$WAS_HOME/bin/wscp.sh
wscp> PmiService enableData /Node:xxxxxx/ApplicationServer:yyyyy
     / -dd       {JVMRuntimeModule}
     will return a NMSV0602E: Naming service unavailable error.
If lsdPort=900 no problem at all
Local fix Problem summary
****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED: All WebSphere Application Server 4.0.1 users *
*                 of the wscp PmiService command.              *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: PmiService in wscp uses hard-coded      *
*                      port 900.                               *

* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
The PmiService command handler in wscp uses different code to
get an initial context than the rest of wscp.  This initial
context code uses the hard-coded port "900" when getting the
initial context -- this means that any unix installation that
has changed the bootstrap port so that they can run non-root
will see an error if they try to use the PmiService wscp
command.  There is no work-around for this problem, other than
running as root and using port 900.
Problem conclusion
This problem had already been fixed by defect 111013, which
will go out with the next PTF (4.0.2).  The PmiService command
handler code is changed to use the common initial context code
for wscp.  We won't actually drop any new code for this APAR,
since the fix is already in the service stream.
Temporary fix
I have supplied L2 with a candidate e-fix.  I put it on
wasdoc0\apars\PQ55597.
