PQ63024: BBONMC FAILS AND BBONMS HAS ERROR MESSAGE GLD5004E REGARDING A SUFFIX PARAMETER | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
![]() APAR status Closed as program error. Error description When running BBONMC the following error messages were generated: BBOU0401E and BBOU0127E. In the output from BBONMS (the naming server region) the following error message is seen: GLD5004E suffix parameter is missing or has no value in the configuration file. And in the bboslapd.conf file there is this: racf database definitions --------------------------------------------------------------- database sdbm GLDBSDBM suffix ""Local fix 1) Edit the bboslapd.conf file to change: suffix "" to suffix "o=WASLRAC" 2) Using the "WAS Instllation and Customization" book (Chapter 4 Performing post-installation tasks-> Adding a new administration application -> Steps for updating the acl for LDAP) update the ACL for the two ACL entry lines below to include "o=WASLRAC" so they look like: aclentry: access-id:racfid=CBADMIN,profiletype=user,o=WASLRAC:normal aclentry: access-id:racfid=CBSYMCR1,profiletype=user,o=WASLRAC:normal 3) When you have finished updating (not adding) the two above ACL entries, then run BBONMC again. 4) To prevent this from happening on future uses of the WAS Customization panels, do the following: a) Enter "S" for "Save customization variables." and enter a dataset name. b) Enter "L" for "Load Customization Variables" and on the next screen for Dsname enter the IBM-supplied defaults (the dataset name is displayed,usually *.SBBOEXEC(BBOWVARS) then press enter. c) Finally, choose "L" again, but this time load the data you previously saved in step a) above. These steps a-c are to insure that your Customization Panels have a current version of IBM variables. (The original problem was caused because an 'older' level of IBM variables had been loaded - never replaced by a more current level).Problem summary **************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere Application Server * * V4.0.1 for z/OS and OS/390 * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When running a newer version of the * * "WebSphere for z/OS Customization" * * dialog that introduces new variables, * * the default value for those new * * variables will not be loaded * * automatically. Currently, the customer * * is required to do the load to get the * * values for these new variables. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When a new version of the the "WebSphere for z/OS Customization" dialog that introduces new variables is shipped, the default value for those new varibles will not be loaded. In this case, in the associated dialog generate files, a null string will be generated in place of those newly introduced variables. The correct this, the dialog should be modified such that the IBM supplied defaults will be loaded at the dialog start-up. A given variable should only be loaded if it cannot be found in the profile (application environment pool). This will ensure that we will always load the newly introduced variables and do not override any existing variables value that the customer might have customized.Problem conclusion The "WebSphere for z/OS Customization" dialog has been modified to load the IBM supplied defaults at start-up. This will allow newly introduced varibles to be loaded with their default values. This will eliminate the generation of null strings in place of new variables in the generated files. APAR PQ63024 is associated with SERVICE LEVEL W401091 of WebSphere Application Server V4.0.1 for z/OS and OS/390.Temporary fix Comments
