****************************************************************
Unknown IIOP Service Contexts are not supported on WebSphere
for zOS.  When an IIOP Request is received into a WebSphere
server, only the recognized IIOP Service Contexts are saved with
the Request.  Also, when the response is sent back only a set of
supported IIOP Service Contexts are sent.
Problem conclusion
Code was modified to detect and propagate unknown IIOP Service
contexts based on a new Environment variable setting:
BBOC_PROPAGATE_UNKNOWN_SERVICE_CONTEXTS.
BBOC_PROPAGATE_UNKNOWN_SERVICE_CONTEXTS=1 indicates that any
unknown IIOP Service Contexts be propagated with the received
Request and response.  This includes the propagation of the set
of current unknown IIOP Service Contexts to any remote
Requests made while under dispatch.  If any unknown IIOP
Service Contexts are received from these remote requests, they
will be merged back into the set of unknown IIOP Service
Contexts in the dispatched Request.

BBOC_PROPAGATE_UNKNOWN_SERVICE_CONTEXTS= 0|1

Activates or deactivates the support for unknown IIOP Service Co

Unknown IIOP Service Contexts received on requests are propagate
with the Request. If the dispatched Request invokes an outbound
Request, the current set of unknown IIOP Service Contexts are
propagated with the new outbound Request. Upon receipt of the
response to the new outbound Request, any unknown IIOP Service
Contexts received are propagated back to the outbound Request.
Also, the set of unknown IIOP Service Contexts are merged back
from the outbound Request into the dispatched Request. The
response for the original inbound Request contains the current
set of unknown IIOP Service Contexts.

The default is 0, which instructs the ORB to not propagate
unknown IIOP Service Contexts.

Example: BBOC_PROPAGATE_UNKNOWN_SERVICE_CONTEXTS=1
