Symptoms

Implemented a custom java class (login part of the code shown below) which implements the OIM APIs to perform various actions in OIM on a two node cluster (node1 on host1 and node2 on host2):

Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(OIMClient.JAVA_NAMING_PROVIDER_URL, PROVIDER_URL);
env.put(OIMClient.JAVA_NAMING_FACTORY_INITIAL, OIMClient.WLS_CONTEXT_FACTORY);
OIMClient oimClient = new OIMClient(env);
oimClient.login(USERNAME, PASSWORD.toCharArray());


The code uses the string: "t3://host1:14000/oim,t3://host2:14000/oim" to connect to the 2-node OIM cluster.
This fails with the following exception :

When connecting to node 1 only (meaning using the "t3://host1:14000/oim" URL), login calls are successful.
