PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
 All users of IBM WebSphere Application
Server version 8.0 and 8.5.

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
When a Java EE application is
deployed as a composition unit of a
business-level application, a copy of
the application is created and not
removed after the composition unit is
created.

RECOMMENDATION:
None

When a Java EE application is deployed as a composition unit
of a business-level application, a temporary copy of the
application is created in the deployment manager logs
directory and not removed after the composition unit is
created.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
The code has been corrected to remove the temporary copy.
