  The following items are the additional fixes included in this
  cumulative fix:
  
   1. Added REST data services support which includes support
  for Microsoft Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) Data
  Services clients.
   2. Added support for creating entities without entity classes.
   3. Removed the requirement of an override ObjectGrid
  descriptor XML file for EntityManager API clients.
   4. Exposed an MBean to monitor and configure a thread pool
  that is used by evictor plug-ins, DataGrid API agents and
  write-behind loader plug-ins.
   5. Added template map support for the write-behind function.
   6. Enabled ObjectQuery support of super-class field and
  property discovery for composite keys and embedded types.
   7. Improved the ShardMBean MBean to have the correct shard
  type instead of INACTIVE when using template maps.
   8. Reduced the memory overhead of cache entries and queries.
   9. Added transport security support to the ogclient.jar file
  for eXtreme Scale clients.
  10. Enabled container server startup when using zone rules.
  These zone rules can define
  non-exclusive placement with the number of zones less
  than the number of shard mappings.
  11. Improved the lock manager for lock timeout and unlock
  functions.
  12. Enabled stand-alone eXtreme Scale servers to start in
  WebSphere Application Server Version 7.0.0.5 or later
  deployments.
  13. Eliminated timing windows for inserting an entry with a
  JPALoader or JPAEntityLoader loader with write-behind functions.
  14. Eliminated timing windows for removing an entry with the
  write-behind function.
  15. Fixed transaction loss behavior for maps that use the
  write-behind function during a failover scenario.
  16. Improved the COPY_TO_BYTES CopyMode setting to support
  objects that use the writeReplace function.
  17. Fixed the java.lang.ClassNotFoundException and
  com.ibm.websphere.objectgrid.ReadOnlyException exceptions for
  template
  maps.
  18. Corrected time zone locality for entities when using
  attributes of type java.sql.Date and java.sql.Time.
  19. Added Coordinated Universal Time (UTC/GMT) date-time
  literal support for queries.
  20. Added HTTP session filter enhancements, including support
  for multiple partitions.
