  ****************************************************************
  When an application is deployed in a network deployment (ND)
  environment, some temporary files that are created under
  <dmgr_profile>/temp/wscache/installExtract are not cleaned up
  even after restarting the deployment manager.
  

Problem conclusion

• This problem occurred because the Web services code was not
  deleting all the temporary files that are created when an
  application is deployed. The code is updated to cleanup all
  temporary files files created during application deployment.
  
  The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
  fix pack 8.5.5.16 and 9.0.5.1.  Please refer to the
