    When a Liberty JVM server is enabled in CICS, the -clean option
    is set, which causes Liberty to clear its workarea. This means
    that any state from previous runs is lost.
    

Problem conclusion

  • CICS has been updated to start Liberty without the -clean option
    so that the workarea is preserved. Additionally, the last
    modified timestamps of applications installed via CICS bundles
    remain unchanged. This ensures that Liberty does not incorrectly
    believe that the application has been updated.
