Local fix

• On IBM i, manually add two files with appropriate configuration
  (Make sure add them together).
  /etc/resolv.conf file - Used by java to obtain DNS server
  address.
  /etc/netsvc.conf file - Should be created at the same time. It
  will avoid  performance issues.
  

Problem summary

• The problem is caused when "ldap:///DC=**,DC=**,DC=**" style
  address is used and no resolv.conf on IBM i.
  

Problem conclusion

• This defect will be fixed in:
  5.0.0 SR12 FP5
  .
  The issue has been fixed on IBM i.
  .
  To obtain the fix:
  Install build 20110308 or later
