APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The Configuration Manager does not shutdown when using the
    stopCM.sh command.
    
    Nothing gets log to indicate that the shutdown command made it
    the the SSPcm server.
    
    Need better feedback to standard output when incorrect password
    is provided.

    Circumvention: None
    

Problem summary

  • Unable to stop CM without using kill command
    The Customer ran the stopCM.sh command, but the CM did not come
    down and no indication was given why. The utility prompted for
    the system passphrase, admin id and password, then ended with no
    message.  The utility had a deficiency that if the admin
    userid/password was not correct, it silently ended.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Updated the shutdown logic in the utility to return better
    diagnostics in case of a connection failure or an authentication
    failure.  Also, give positive feedback when the CM has
    successfully been told to shut down.
    

Temporary fix
