Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  USERS AFFECTED:
  All users of WebSphere Message Broker V8.0 and IBM Integration
  Bus V9.0 and above deploying a BAR file containing updates to a
  previously deployed ESQL file.
  
  
  Platforms affected:
  z/OS, MultiPlatform
  
  ****************************************************************
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  During deploy of updates to an IIB Application, existing files
  are renamed and a .rmv file extension is appended. This is to
  enable the original state of the Application to be recovered if
  the deploy is unsuccessful.
  
  The files with the .rmv extension should be removed after each
  deploy action in all cases, whether the deploy was successful or
  if it fails.
  
  In the reported instance a file containing ESQL updates fails to
  be deployed, but the recovery step creates multiple versions of
  previously deployed artifacts, each with repeating .rmv
  extensions.
  
  The Integration server becomes unresponsive to mqsi commands.
  
  There are a number of resource name changes between WebSphere
  Message Broker and IBM Integration Bus Version 9.0.  For details

Problem conclusion

• The product now cleans up all temporary files which are created
  with the .rmv extension during the deploy process.
