PM50455: SECOND 64BIT MONITOR INSTALL TURN TO BE 32BIT

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

The 64bit selection for WebSphere Application Server with
WebSphere Business Modeler and the Feature Pack for
XML install is not working for the second image installation,
while one WebSphere Application Server with WebSphere Business
Modeler and the Feature Pack for XML image is installed.

Local fix

Special note concerning the interim fix:

This interim fix modifies data in Installation Manager itself.
The fix does not need to modify files in the WebSphere
Application Server directory (WAS_HOME).  Since this fix only
alters Installation Manager, the record of the fix installation
does not show up in information displayed by the WSAS
"versionInfo" command.  The information will only show up in
Installation Manager's "View Installed Products" information.

Problem conclusion

When 64bits is selected for WebSphere Application Server V7.0
with WebSphere Business Modeler V7.5.1 and the Feature Pack for
XML install, Installation Manager will save the value to an
offering data cache with the first offering id (order for
offering is random), in some cases, when Installation
Manager requires the value, it may use the second or third
offering id to get the value, then the return is null.

The solution is, if 64bit is selected, the value is saved to the
profile level instead of the offering level.  In this way,
Installation Manager can get the value any time it is required.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix pack 7.0.0.23.  Please refer to the Recommended Updates
