Error description

  • WSVR0009E  org.omg.CORBA.INV_OBJREF error that occurs
    periodically during appserver startup. The information recorded
    in the transaction  and partner logs have become disassociated.
     This has resulted in  transactions recorded in the tranlog
    attempting to contact resources  that are no longer present in
    the partner logs, leading to the exception  as shown in example
    here :
    
    E [11/21/13 08:50:56:997] 0000000e RegisteredRes [WTRN0045W:
    The  transaction service cannot recover resource
    000000000000000a. The exception stack trace follows:

    ****************************************************************
    A partner entry in the XA recovery log entry describing a
    remote subordinate server was marked as recovered in error,
    and subsequently removed from the log during server shutdown.
    The next server restart attempted to recover a transaction that
    referenced this remote subordinate server, failed to find the
    resource in the partner log, resulting in the server failing
    to start.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Ensure that remote resource references are not flagged as
    recovered by checking for references that refer to the same
    resource but show conflicting recovery status.
    
    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix pack 7.0.0.35, 8.0.0.10 and 8.5.5.4.  Please refer to the
