PM78276: SHARED LTPA TOKEN ALWAYS EXPORTED WITH REALM AS "DEFAULT"

Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

While running z/OS WAS 8.0.0.1 (with v6.1 in a mixed cell) the
customer tries to share the LTPA token.  The zWAS LTPA token is
exported and installed in a DataPower (DP) box, but when the DP
box acts as a client calling inbound to a zWAS server the LTPA
token that comes in is found to have a realm name of "DEFAULT".

Local fix

Hand edit the exported LTPA token key file to set the desired
realm name

****************************************************************
When exporting the keyfile in the adminconsole and/or wsadmin
, from a z/OS server, the realm is set to "DEFAULT":
com.ibm.websphere.ltpa.Realm=DEFAULT .

com.ibm.websphere.ltpa.Realm to the administratative or global
domain.
