Problem summary

• ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:  All users of WebSphere eXtreme Scale.       *
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a JMX service port is              *
  *                      provided, the JMX code binds to an      *
  *                      additional                              *
  *                      port that can interfere with other      *
  *                      applications.                           *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  The code has been updated to ensure additional ports are
  not
  bound when Secure Sockets Layer(SSL) is disabled.  When SSL is
  enabled, a
  new option to specify the JMX SSL port was added.
  If
  the com.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false system property is
  specified, SSL for Java Management
  Extensios
  (JMX)
  can
  be
  disabled
  even
  if
  SSL
  on
  eXtreme
  Scale
  is
  enabled.
  

Problem conclusion

• A future fix will be provided on top of Verion 6.1.0.5,
  7.0.0.4,
  and
  7.1.0.2.
