Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of IBM WebSphere Application      *
  *                  Server V7.0                                 *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The process umask is incorrectly        *
  *                      defaulting.                             *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The server process umask is incorrectly defaulting.
  This incorrect default behavior will
  occur if the _BPX_BATCH_UMASK WebSphere environment variable
  has not been explicitly set.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been changed to default the umask to 007 if the
  _BPX_BATCH_UMASK WebSphere environment variable has not
  been configured. A umask of 007 will only allow
  administrators read and write access to the files created.
  This default behavior is consistent with previous releases
  of Websphere Application Server for z/OS.
  
  APAR PM32622  is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
  Level (Fix Pack) 7.0.0.17 of WebSphere Application Server V7.0.
