Fixes are available

APAR status

Closed as program error.

Error description

If


1) enable auto key generation

2) select "Generate on a specific day"
   set "Weekday" as Sunday
   "Repeat interval" larger than 56 weeks

then you will see the weekday of "Next start date" will not be
fixed to
Sunday, maybe Mon, or Tue, or any other weekdays


If the "Repeat interval" smaller than 56 weeks, the weekday of
"Next
start date" will be fixed to Sunday (the same weekday of the
specific
day)

-------------
Key set groups settings

Repeat interval
Specifies the period of time between each schedule time to check
for
expired certificates or the interval between schedule checks.

Next start date
Specifies the date for the next scheduled check. This allows the
deployment manager to be stopped and restarted without resetting
the
date.

* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: DAY OF THE WEEK MIGHT NOT BE ACCURATE   *
*                      IF INTERVAL IS LONGER THAN 56 WEEKS     *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
When automatic LTPAKeys generation is scheduled more than 56
weeks later, although day of the week is specified, this value
may not be honored. This is due to a code defect of adjusting
a day of next scheduled date.

Problem conclusion

With this fix, day of the week adjustment code was modified to
honor the setting.

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
fix pack 6,1.0.43, 7.0.0.23 and 8.0.0.3.  Please refer to the
