PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
Websphere Process Server 6.0.1 and 6.0.2
users.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
An error occurs when a terminated
Websphere Process Server has been
recovered and restarted.  The error
message is a
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException.

RECOMMENDATION:
None

After recovery of terminated Websphere Process Server, Failed
Event application starts processing some Service Component
Architecture (SCA) components that are not completely
deployed to the server, and hence throws a
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
An ifix is created which includes code changes for retrying     
the invokation of unavailable SCA components.
