APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • Using a jython script to start a cluster and track it's status.
    The state of the cluster starts at websphere.cluster.stopped
    then goes to websphere.cluster.partial.start as expected but
    also shows websphere.cluster.stopped even though the cluster
    is really started.  It is not correct for the cluster state to
    go to websphere.cluster.stopped if the cluster is started.
     -
    The command used to get the cluster state is:
     clusterState = AdminControl.getAttribute(clusterObject,
    'state')
                    debug(clusterState)
