Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of the node maintenance mode * * function in WebSphere Virtual Enterprise. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a node is set into maintenance * * mode, the status remains "in * * progress". * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The node maintenance mode action first sets all the servers on the node into maintenance mode. After that, the node is set into maintenance mode. Before a server is set into maintenance mode, the application placement controller identifies a replacement for the server that is going into maintenance. If a problem occurs while setting a server into "maintenance mode", the node is not set back into "normal" state.
Problem conclusion
The node maintenance mode function was fixed to skip the communication with the application placement controller for servers that are stopped, for servers that belong to dynamic clusters that are in manual mode, and for servers that belong to static clusters. The error path was changed, so that the node is set back to "normal" state when the error occurs.
