Readme File for: IBM Platform Symphony

Product Release: 7.1 Fix Pack 1

Update Name: Interim Fix 455270

Fix ID: sym-7.1-build455270

Publication Date: June 6, 2017

In some negative cases, the session manager (SSM) or the service directory (SD) reports an incorrect error code and message in the log file. For example, when the VEMKD does not respond quickly to its client (SSM or SD) for registration, the client will fail and trigger the "VEM_REGISTER_FAILED" error; however, the error code and message in the log file is not "VEM_REGISTER_FAILED". This interim fix provides a resolution for this issue to ensure the correct error code and message is logged.
