Error description

  • When using WOLA to invoke IMS programs, calling the
    setOTMASyncLevel does not modify the OTMA Sync Level as
    expected.
    
    The method signature is:
    public void setOTMASyncLevel(java.lang.String OTMASyncLevel)
    
    If csi.setOTMASyncLevel("0") is called, then Commit Mode 1
    (CM1): SEND_THEN_COMMIT -  Sync Level NONE (0) is applied.
    
    However, if csi.setOTMASyncLevel("1") is called, then nothing
    happens: Commit Mode 1 (CM1): SEND_THEN_COMMIT - Sync Level
    NONE (0) is applied.
    
    It is expected that if csi.setOTMASyncLevel("1") is called,
    then the following should be applied:
    Commit Mode 1 (CM1): SEND_THEN_COMMIT - Sync Level CONFIRM (1)

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: WOLA over OTMA fails to properly        *
    *                      propagate the OTMASyncLevel setting.    *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    The WOLA native interface with IMS OTMA C/I is not properly
    checking the SyncLevel(0|1) setting and is always forcing this
    to 0, or NONE.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The WOLA native code is modified to correctly propagate the
    OTMASyncLevel setting.
    
    APAR PM33874 is currently targeted for inclusion in Service
    Level (Fix Pack) 7.0.0.19 of WebSphere Application Server V7.0.
