Upgrading to a new service level W401400 and later caused an
existing application which used to deploy fine using SM EUI to
fail with the following exception:
BBON0145E Run time exception occurred, stack trace follows:
com.ibm.ws390.metadata.archive.J2EEArchiveFileException:
  mofConverterUMOFtoMOF2: processing FAILED for xxx.jar : null
Problem conclusion
Beginning with W401400 and later where direct deployment tool
support was introduced, metadata conversion (MOF <-> uMOF) fails
for some applications that contain jar/zip file within its
EjbJar file due to locking issues within temporary files
generated during deployment of an application EAR file through
SM EUI. This fix removes this limitation by removing embedded
jar/zip when creating a temporary EjbJar file simply for a
metadata conversion.
