Tivoli Provisioning Manager, Interim Fix 7.2.1-TIV-TPM-IF00004

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• Incase of multiple NICs the first IP in the list of NICs is
  chosen for
   managed IP inside TPM. The name of VST and the vm that gets
  deployed
   from VST should be different and current implementation doesn't
  allow
   both to be same.
  

Local fix

• none
  The doc that need to be updated for both statements,
  1. VM name to be deployed should be different that the VST name
  this needs to be updated here in below page
  https://tpmdocb.romelab.it.ibm.com/tpm72r/index.jsp?topic=/com.i
  bm.tivoli.tpm.scenario.doc/virtual/scom_part3.html
  2. "Incase of multiple network interfaces The first one has been
  marked as management interface ",
  this needs to be updated here in below page, I suppose the below
  should be done from VMware code, let me know if you need further
  details.
