Symptoms

The Tools Release has recently been upgraded and EnterpriseOne services are successfully started.  All application tests work.  After testing, E1 services are stopped, a backup is done but when trying to restart services; services will not start.  It is determine that when MIMIX backs up the system, it automatically starts journaling on the system library (ex: E812SYS, E900SYS) directory in the IFS. The problem lies when journaling is started on the following file in the IFS:

If journaling is started on this file PORTTEST fails and there are problems with starting services, etc. If journaling is stopped on this file then everything returns to normal. Here are the steps to duplicate:

Steps to replicate the issue:

• Restore the E812SYS and /E812SYS objects to a test system.
• Start E1 services
• Run PORTTEST
• Stop E1 services
• Issue the STRJRN (Start Journal) command on object /E812SYS/LOCALE/XML/ICUDT32E.DAT
• Attempt to start E1 services
• Services fail -- message CPD0005 is found in the AS400 joblog for the NETWORK job.
• Issue the ENDJRN command on the above named object. (ENDJRN OBJ(/E812SYS/LOCALE/XML/ICUDT32E.DAT)
• Start E1 services
• PORTTEST is successful
