Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: Tivoli Provisioning Manager users using      *
  *                 workflows for TPC zone control; TPC users    *
  *                 using the Zone Control feature.              *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 1. Tivoli Provisioning Manager          *
  *                      workflows for zoning changes fail       *
  *                      with errors.  An example of such an     *
  *                      error is 'The TPC job succeeded, but    *
  *                      the zone member could not be removed    *
  *                      from the zone.'                         *
  *                                                              *
  *                      2. Another symptom of the same          *
  *                      problem is incorrect information        *
  *                      displayed in the TPC GUI Fabric         *
  *                      Manager Zone Configuration panel.       *
  *                      This happens after a zone control       *
  *                      session.  TPC's representation of the   *
  *                      fabric zoning is incorrect until the    *
  *                      fabric is probed.                       *
