Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The comment for the field NWMConnServerResourceId in the
  Network Monitor API Mappings EZBNMRHA and EZBNMRHC incorrectly
  states, "This value only applies to load balancing servers
  which have bound to a port number for which SHAREPORT was
  specified on the PORT/PORTRANGE profile statement.  This value
  will be zero for client connections to servers which are notload
  balancing servers." These statements are incorrect and should
  be removed from the comments. The field will actually be set
  for all inbound connections.

  NWMCONNSERVERRESOURCEID description is incorrect.
  
  The NWMCONNSERVERRESOURCEID description on the NWMTCPConnEntry
  in EZBNMRHA, and NWMConnEntry in EZBNMRHC incorrectly indicates
  the value only applies to connections associated with a load
  balancing server that bound to a port number that was defined
  with SHAREPORT specified on the PORT or PORTRANGE profile
  statement.
  The NWMCONNSERVERRESOURCEID is valid for any passive connection
  whether the associated server is load balancing or not.
