Interim fix 497119 for Platform Symphony 7.1 Fix Pack 1

Readme File for IBM^® Platform Symphony 7.1 Interim Fix 497119

Readme File for: IBM Platform Symphony

Product Release: 7.1 Fix Pack 1

Update Name: Interim Fix 497119

Fix ID: sym-7.1-build497119

Publication Date: July 23, 2018

When an application that is not prestarted is enabled in Platform Symphony 7.1 Fix Pack 1, its session manager (SSM) is not started until workload is received. During this time, the MultiCluster proxy service (smcproxy) periodically queries workload status of applications in silo clusters and repeatedly logs messages about the SSM not running in the smc.proxy log. This interim fix removes these unnecessary error messages.
